On Iowa
I graduated from the University of Iowa with a Bachelor's degree in English in 1990, in only four years. But it was not without ups and downs. For example, as a freshman I took a semester of Latin which was ambitious, but not fruitful, so I switched to Spanish. And I had to retake a basic chemistry class. I was not even close to being an honors student, but I did spend just barely enough time in the library to somehow get into law school.
Recently, I contacted the University of Iowa Libraries to let them know that this undistinguished alum had published a book which students of immigration, political science, or law might be interested in reading. My book is not a textbook. It's a plain-English, easy-to-read book for non-lawyers about U.S. immigration law, the need for immigration reform, and a nuts and bolts proposal for what the future of immigration law should be.
I am happy to report they wrote back to inform me that they ordered a copy. I'm tickled, of course, to know that my book is in the University of Iowa Libraries. And I'm very thankful to the University of Iowa for many reasons.
May there be a student who discovers my book, enjoys reading it, and learns something from it! Cheers!
