One of the perks of Facebook, Twitter, etc. is that while you, faithful part-time Milano student, are ensconced with your Economics textbook, notebook, calculator, and are schlepping everywhere to TRY to keep up with your work is that you get to see your full-time students adventures’ in what has been coined “The Summer of Greatness”.

Yes, my friends, that is where your faithful pals and colleagues have been in policy-land: sick and very very tired.
