Beaucoup des Français…

dominates my study time now that I’m back in the United States. After three weeks of cramming and revising my French (first learned 2002-03 in Paris), I successfully passed my oral and written proficiency exams on 07 April. This had to be one of the most exciting days of my life, for it paved the way to finally receiving my masters in international relations from Baylor University in May. This almost brought closure to my time in Waco, Texas, but I managed to land a research job with Baylor’s Institute for the Study of Religion. My grant enables me study international faith-based organizations in Latin America, Africa and Asia, plus I am able to travel while doing this research.
