Going forward I'd like to occasionally highlight cool projects that other UEPers are involved in. 

Today I'll direct you to Change.org's End Homelessness, which is written by fellow first-year Shannon Moriarty.  Shannon came to UEP to pursue her interests in housing and welfare policy, and her blog, which she just launched earlier this month (and usually posts to a couple times a day), is really a fantastic source of news and information.  If you share her interests, I highly recommend you go there and click on the little orange RSS feed button.

Shannon is also a heck of a candlepin bowler.
