in case you were wondering, i did attend class and properly earned my minor african studies

i spent the first half of my senior year of college as part of the Burch Field Research Seminar in cape town.  it was a wonderful time and i learned a lot.  it has been sad to hear more and more (as the story has unfolded in national sports news) how the professor who taught the seminar, dr. julius nyang'oro, played a huge role in the unc football academic fraud saga.

i remember dr. nyang'oro as a wonderful professor and that semester was full of incredible experiences.
