i'm sorry, WHAT?!?!

New York senator Kirsten Gillibrand has a dedicated photo section in her new memoir, Off the Sidelines, and it includes one very important photo.
Apparently Gillibrand was once roommates with beloved Nashville actress Connie Britton when the two Dartmouth undergrads were studying abroad for a summer in Beijing. (via)

I can't go but you should.


from my advisor:

Dear all,

The Bungalows of Rockaway is Jennifer Callahan's entertaining and enlightening documentary that traces the social history of the Rockaways from the Marx Brothers to Robert Moses through the bungalow. Combining rich archival materials on past pleasures with insightful interviews on contemporary conservation, she reveals how this vernacular villa type opened the shore to the masses and merits preservation.

INFORMATION: The Bungalows of Rockaway
Monday, June 11th 6:30 pm followed by panel discussion with bungalow experts & residents, Rockaway Taco owner David Selig, and NYT journalist Eve Kahn Anthology
Film Archives New York, NY

yale qb urpdate


In lots of the initial stories on Patrick Wit, the Yale QB who chose "The Game" over his Rhodes Scholarship finalist interview, it was reported that his coach also passed on the scholarship in order to pursue professional football. Turns out that might have been an overstatement...(gulp) 

"Witt was unable to be reached for comment. He has refused to speak about his decision this week, releasing only a statement saying that he would withdraw the application and concentrate on the Harvard game.  He informed Rhodes officials of his decision last Sunday night, and it took them a bit by surprise.

“It is rare for someone to decline an interview,” Gerson said. “I cannot remember anyone else who has ever declined an interview for an athletic event."




*sigh*

were you wondering what my worst nightmare was?

ST. MARY’S CITY, Md. — Kimberly Fitzgerald, a freshman at St. Mary’s College of Maryland here, loves it when people ask where she lives.
“It’s a good story to tell,” she said. That is because Ms. Fitzgerald and 239 schoolmates live on a cruise ship that was converted into student housing after an outbreak of mold shut down two dorms on campus. The closing forced students into hotels miles from campus, and Ms. Fitzgerald, 18, stayed in a Holiday Inn that was a 45-minute drive from campus. via nyt
