About me I will be attending Columbia University in the Fall of 2009 to obtain a masters in International Affairs. My ultimate goal would be to work in development projects related to the use of Science and Technology in developing nations. I have also recently become quite interested in the issue of Climate Change and how to align this agenda with that of Economic Development.
Political Role Models I am inspired by anyone willing to consider new ideas for today's global issues and this is not limited to political leaders. I respect anyone who is brave enough to go against the traditional partisanship of the U.S. and focus on whats best for us and the world at large.
Important News to Me Global news related to economics, conflict, health including underrepresented topics in today's media such as the Sudan Crisis, Afghani War, AIDs in Africa, etc.

													- 5 months ago
													
	→ The Catholic Church consistently denies women their rights and diminishes their role in society and in the church to that of followers, not leaders. That said, women in Africa do not always have the option to choose abstinence and often it is their husbands who are infecting them with AIDS.

	→ Dylan, have you read Jeffrey Sachs' book The End of Poverty? He is famous economist who studied at Harvard and now teaches at Columbia University. He is also the director of the UN Millennium Project, the Earth Institute at Columbia University and co-founder and President of the Millennium Promise Alliance.

													- 5 months ago
													
	→ Haha yes I did. Somehow I thought the person who posted this article was complaining about how instead of focusing on this we should do something about the Economy. But when I clicked on the link that description was gone. Hopefully I will get to post that comment soon!

													- 5 months ago
													
	→ Hopefully something will be done about the destructive coal mining practices in WV by Massey Energy. So far, Obama's administration is following the poor example set by Bush and the EPA.

Thank you for your comment on the abortion debate. That's an issue I get super heated about and tend to lose track of my thoughts.
