Oh, the administration of it all!
We have, sad to say, an odd number of female students coming to Rome for the semester. Thus, we have to keep being certain that there are 3-person rooms in hotels, etc. We dodged the even/odd bullet with males; we had 9 coming, but one - um - withdrew from these Colleges somewhat abruptly. Oh - and I'm meeting today with a student who suffers from Celiac disease. Gluten intolerance. Why, I am crankily muttering to myself, would someone with celiac disease choose to study in pasta-land for 4 months? In an amazing small-world incident, I had a friend with celiac disease visit me in Rome in 2003 - so I emailed him and he responded with some links, including these cards to print out and show to waiters.
