Last true term at Massey

Judging by my email inboxes, term time has nearly resumed. Since junior fellows are only allowed to be residents for three years, this will be my last real term at Massey. Certainly, there’s a chance I will work for the summer residence program again, and there are many JFs who remain highly present and active after they move out. Nonetheless, it’s worth devoting some special attention to using this last term as well as possible.

I don’t think that calls for anything especially elaborate – just a special effort to take advantage of all the things that make Massey special. In particular, that means spontaneous opportunities for conversations, at meals and elsewhere.

I will also be wrapping up my multi-year project of documenting college life from the inside.

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.
