Hectic day, but good

Red Room in New College, Oxford

As is the norm for Tuesday, it has been hectic. I had a spattering of lectures, OUSSG, and a few other tasks besides. Now, I am going to go try to watch the Daily Show coverage of the midterm elections. Whether I succeed or fail in the attempt, I will not be able to stay up long, as I will be heading to London tomorrow.

Sorry to be so brief, but there are greater things afoot than blogging.

If you really want to read something related to environmental politics, here are some notes from an interesting lecture at the Said Business School – yet another series to which I will have to subscribe. The wiki is actually proving a surprisingly useful tool for research and general student purposes.

PS. Hilary Benn, the British Secretary of State for International Development, sent me a response to the fish paper today. I first spoke with him about it on October 10th. I have yet to go through his letter in detail, but it is clearly the most comprehensive response I have ever received in writing from a politician.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

  1. How exciting to get such a well-thought out response. You must have impressed him in some way for him to go to the trouble. Maybe he could offer you a job when you graduate from O!
