Racial Narratives and LGBT Dinner

Late to torts this morning as usual. Got free krispee kreme donuts from the LGBT group between classes. Nice of them, I don't usually get breakfast :-) Went to a Qanun meeting at lunch to regulate (and get free pizza). It was on the mess America has made of Iraq and how evil the neo conservatives are so to a large extent I agreed with them. However they had to throw in a bunch of slander about Israel, which the speaker even admitted was a seperate issue and not related so they managed to piss me off. Had a conversation with an Algerian woman after the lunch who shared my sentiments and managed to be late to contracts on account of the delay. After class I set up a meeting with some of the Qanun board to discuss an amicable reslution to the tensions on campus. We'll see how that goes. Turned in my HRIP application in the afternoon and went to hear Valerie Smith, African-American Studies and Professor of Literature at Princeton University, speak about Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, and the civil rights movement. Jack Greenberg was there too, he is a Columbia professor and he argued Brown vs Board of Education 50 years ago. Sadly the talk was pretty boring. You win some, you lose some. There were some tasty things afterwards at the reception including brie (we have wine and brie all over the place, it's great) so I got a snack out of the deal. Then it was time for dinner with the LGBT group in honor of coming out day. And free indian food. I tried this mango yogurt drink. Interesting. Now it's time to start homework and maybe go to the gym later, but just to sum up, I got free breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner today. Hoorah for law student perks :-P
