A Nice Reminder...

Hey Y'all!

While G Dubs is normally billed as the university that is four blocks from the White House with powerful political speakers on campus every week, it's always a nice reminder our students represent so much more than that.

One of my good friends from New Jersey, Asthaa, who is in the Elliott School of International Affairs with a concentration in Development performed in and also choregraphed for the GW Balance end of the year show. GW Balance is a student organization dedicated to ballet. Beyond their normal programming they put on two larger shows, one at the end of the Fall semester (this past year Balance performed the Nutcracker) and one at the end of the Spring semester. My friend Asthaa helped put on this end of the year performance titled "Viva la Danza".

We all have our academic responsibilites, especially now during Finals time but it's great to take a break from the studying and paper writing to sit down and appreciate the talents of fellow students. It serves as a nice reminder that GW students do more than just go to school.

All the best,

Oscar
