Summer Update

Hey all!
I'm still trying to get IRB approval. It's proving to be a real pain. I have to get permission from the college in India in order to recruit students there and according to my advisers that could take a while. Summer Hindi classes are going well. I feel as if I am learning a lot and feel a bit more confident in my language abilities. yesterday I had a whole 3 hr conversation in Hindi with just a little English mixed in! I'm starting to get really excited to leave for India. Today we heard about the bombings in Mumbai... It's so sad. I wonder who did it... Luckily for me Banaras is a relatively stabil city, unlike Mumbai, which is torn with political and religious conflict, and not to mention a much larger city. My heart goes out to the families of those who were hurt and those who lost their lives.
