I start to read the book which my favorite boss commended me the other day, “From Beirut to Jerusalem", and start to find out the author is Thomas Friedman, who is also the author of popular book of “The World is Flat”. From the first couple pages, I got to know he graduated from the liberal art school – Brandeis College, and one of my best friends is going there this Sep for PHD study with full scholarship.

Then, when I was on the MSN with one friend and start to talk about those things, he told me Thomas came to Williams College and gave a speech on "The world is flat" and the whole Chapin Hall was packed! He even gave a graduation speech last year there. He thinks liberal arts education is the way to go and he loves Williams. My friend attended the lecture and he thought Thomas was a great guy.
