REGIS UNIVERSITY e a biweekly publication 1 ~- a Serving the Regis community since 1888 Volume 92, Issue 9 Tuesday March 2, 2010 The Washington D. C. experience BY AMBERAlARJO There have been few decisions in my short life so far that have caused me stop and really think twice ... and a third time, and a fourth time, and maybe a few times after that. Coming to Washington D.C. was perhaps one of the hardest decisions I have made. I had a lot to think about, and a lot of planning to do in a very short amount of time. What made my situation so diffi­ cult was the lack of time I had allotted to make a decision. I applied for the Washington Center Program, got accepted and ultimately made all my arrangements within a few short months in the fall 2009 semester. Now, in the spring 2010 semester, I am writing to all of you back home from our nation's capital. However, I would advise anyone looking to get an Academic Internship, or go abroad, to take some time and plan ahead. Go in a semester ahead of time, or over the summer and explore the options. Really take the time to exam­ ine the course list, apply for scholar­ ships and research the program.

Produced exclusively by Live Nation, the 25-city jaunt kicks off in Chicago on July 13 and will include stops in Cleveland, Boston, Nashville and Los Angeles for the two classic-meets-contemporary sensations, both of whom mash up classic pop stylings and modern pop hits in their own unique fashions. Complete itinerary below. Presale for both fan clubs begin on Wednesday, February 15th at 10am local time through 10pm. More information including VIP Packages can be found at http://www.sncmusic.com/ and http://postmodernjukebox.com/. As the official credit card for the tour, Citi® / AAdvantage® cardmembers will have access to purchase presale tickets beginning Thursday, February 16th at 10am local time through Friday, February 17th at 10pm local time.
