Selma Hamdani (Faculty, Psychology) is on leave this year enjoying a wonderful experience with her family. Here is her postcard from England: "Greetings from the city of dreaming spires, where Alice met a rabbit, where a wardrobe takes you to Narnia, and Middle Earth is around the corner. Although I am roaming the historical streets of Oxford, I am thinking of 蘑菇视频 and its wonderful people. I miss it. I miss the buzzing of the atrium, the magic of the Peace Garden.
