"WOW" Week & Union exchange group

The week started with a "bang" so to speak as the exchange group from Union Univ. decorated my apartment in real red, white and blue along with dozens of flags and such-- here is the winning team for the "States Quiz" (Ben, one of the hosts; Mike, a new student from Minnesota we just met; David, engineering students, & Kris, far right, on our staff, who really does have a lot of trivia knowledge!).Just an overview shot of my living room... :-)
Wednesday we had pasta parties in 3 locations with over 40 total! I attended the one in the Schunter dormitory, where our host was Toni.
Bowling night was tons of fun! Afterwards several students tried their hand at mechanical "bull riding." Here I am with Mike, Alessandro (from Italy), Jan, Peter (whom we met 1 year ago with the Union group), Kris and Zach (from Union).
One of our contact table days, here at Mensa 2 (student cafeteria).
Thanks for all those who send words of encouragement during this crazy- packed week! It was all worth it!
