i know it's listed right above this in the events stuff but Tony Freaking Blair is coming to DePauw College tonight! my first question is, what the shiz is DePauw College? second, how was this not publicized more. i mean this is big news. i would've loved to hear him speak but without any notice i'll never be able to get to DePauw on time. is this a misprint? is he speaking at DePaul in Chicago?
It's True: http://www.wthr.com/Global/story.asp?S=7956766
DePauw is in Greencastle, about an hour west of Indianapolis. I knew about this some time ago, but of course I read newspapers.
wait a minute... DePauw is a university? doesn't it require x number of students to become a university? and, "Blair will become the fifth former British prime minister to speak at the campus." WHAT!? That is amazing! I must learn more about this "DePauw."
