In an average week I receive approximately 3-5 requests (via e-mail, Twitter, Facebook and sometimes phone) for assistance on a project and/or locating a specific piece of literature and/or requesting to meet in person/talk on the phone about something related to international education. Some weeks I receive no such messages and other weeks I receive a few more. I try as hard as possible to reply to each and every message I receive and to help as much as I can. Please note, however, that I'm not always able to answer in a timely fashion and I must admit that some messages fall through the cracks and they can quickly get lost in the mix. I currently have between 10-15 messages from the past several weeks that I need to reply to. If I owe you a reply to a message please know II hope to get to your soon. I also owe a good colleague a long over due set of questions for an IHEC Blog interview...Right now my plate is full with family (my wonderful wife and three awesome children ages 9, 5 and 2); my full-time employment as Senior Adviser for International Initiatives in The College at The University of Chicago; serious dissertation research and writing; and, a number of other projects including consulting on the next update of the study abroad research annotated bibliographies.
