We had a very good first session today (the first day of “condi week”), taught by Prof. Condoleezza Rice. She managed the class discussions expertly and as the class was very focused as well, the comments were spot on. I’m looking forward to Thursday when we have her next.
It was funny to see secret service scoping out the class room right before class. The entire class was dressed in as much red, blue and white as we could get our hands on, as a humorous reminder of “patriotism.”

wow, secret service in the class… Even though she does not hold office in current government she still get security?…so, she does not have personal life after high profile government post.
Haven’t seen the security since the first day, so maybe she decided we were safe.

Very cool that you get to watch Condi in class this week. Hopefully you have a good time. And you should definitely write a follow-up post if you get cold called. Enjoy!

. The second session was not that exciting because we did a team based exercise in class which she supervised but we didn’t really get to hear much of what she had to say.. hmm.
