A Brave New World of Information Technology

When the campus-wide Internet connection was accidentally severed on Tuesday of last week, the importance of technology in the lives of Georgetown University students had rarely been demonstrated so powerfully.

Finding a way forward

I prayed the other night.

I was lying in bed when it occurred to me how incredibly lucky I am to have a family, a group of friends and a campus community who care about and respect me in my entirety?and could care less if I like guys or girls. So I thanked God for that.

Te presento mi coochie snorcher
