The Senate shouldn’t pass a crypto bill this week to facilitate this kind of corruption.

Looking forward Karina!

Congrats!

Well would you look at that.

The gift of Pittsburgh. I am passing it along. www.pittsburghmagazine.com/pittsburgh-i...

To all my American prof friends: happy grading. Tis the season.
