Berlin Wall


Twenty years ago? Wow- I can remember when the Wall came down. You could buy a peice of the concrete wall (complete with spay paint graffiti) as a souvenir. I thought of purchasing a piece for my dad as it represents much for which he served- a fighter pilot in the Navy trained to deliver ordiance behind the Iron Curtain.

The German Club at Boise State is re-creating a portion of the Wall. Sheridan Academy's German international student participates in the univeristy's German club and he shared with me that the Berlin Wall may not be the best way to remember or recognize Germany...


Tomorrow we go to the State House to witness the Governor of Idaho sign a proclamation designating this week as "Nonprofit Awareness Week." As we are a nonprofit school, we will particpate in this ceremony...
