Sorry about the downtime today–or did no one notice? I have no idea what caused it to happen, but an important Wordpress file disappeared off the server entirely and so nothing was working properly until I discovered what was missing and solved it. Really, really strange since I wasn’t FTPing anywhere near there and it only happened an hour after I had last SSH’d in.
Seymour Hersh is coming to give a nice talk and take questions this evening, P.E.A. paid a good deal of money for him to come. Not sure what exactly he’s talking about, maybe Iran? It wasn’t made very clear. Should be interesting.

1Hi Sam! I love your blog. I’m an independent admissions counselor in Texas - I help students just like you through this whole messy process. Your blog is hysterical, and it’s a great reminder to those of us who used to work (and may still) in college admissions offices just how much of a bureaucratic mess it all can be for students. Good for you for getting the word out - and for being persistent and hard working. Good luck!

Who is Sam Jackson?
Kind words about my blog:
Andrew Careaga calls it “a service to all of us in the higher ed marketing business.”
Christian Long says it has “dramatically inspired college admissions folks to take notice”
Bob Johnson says “I like [it] because I agree with so much of what he says.” and that “Paying attention what Sam writes will let you focus more closely on students who will actually attend your school.”
Karine Joly says my witty and fresh style “offers a rare glimpse at the mind of our elusive prospective students”
and TargetX calls my blog “good reading” and me “wise-beyond-my-years.”
