Basics

So apparently exactly what I'm doing in London is still a mystery to this blog. Just keeping you on the edge of your seats, I am. (That sentence makes much more sense in a cockney accent.) I am studying with Oberlin professors in Bloomsbury, London. My school is actually on the same street and a block down from the British Museum. It is also around the corner from the Cartoon Museum, which has Chairman Mao residing there.

I am taking 3 class: Colonialism and British Identity (everyone takes this -- taught by Anu Needham and Steve Volk) Museums and the Shaping of Knowledge (Volk) Theatre of London (Donna Vinter, a teacher at the center)
