Congrats! Halifax is a lovely city.

Yes, I like it here. It is where I am from. I will keep you all informed of my progress.

My brother's a grad student at Dal. He likes it out there. So are there typography courses at NSCAD or what all is involved in the design program?

F ME IM EXCITED!

Your excitement is strangely contagious. CONGRATS!!!

and yes, there are typography courses at NSCAD University.

regular and advanced, with the option for indipendant.

however, the core of the design program is in semiotics and rhetoric.

in the case of masters you simply choose what its going to be about.

and i hapen to be a type freak.

Best of luck to you there for a great program you'll see! Say cheers to all the other type freaks for me whomsoever they may be :-)

And here I thought you were announcing a run for the Presidency.

He was going to, but with Obama and Clinton getting all the press, he decided it was a lost cause, and accepted the grad school offer instead.

(Making the possibly unwarranted assumption that he's at least as left wing as the average Democratic candidate. But until recently, all the major Canadian political parties were to the left of the Democrats, so it seems like a reasonable guess.)

y'see, the Republicans are like your conservative party, and the Democrats are like your conservative party.

Let's see...
Grad school? Whitehouse?

Yes, I think he made the right choice :-)

As an undergrad student as NSCAD going into my final year I'll probably see ya around here next semester then. There is a few of us type freaks and unfortunately there isn't many students who are excited about type so it'll be cool to have one around.

Cheers, see ya in the Fall,
