We have quite the lineup for the fall, the debate and his holiness the Dali Lama. I can’t wait and will most certainly be in line to get tickets for both. I just think this shines light on one of the (few) benefits I see to going to a major university. A small school probably would not be able to have such interesting events on campus — these are opportunities I would never have had at Bates College but I do now here at the U of Miami (and I couldn’t be more excited about it).
why is the date the 13th of June in bold when in fact the HH Dali Lama speaking on the 22nd of Septemtber?? ;-(
whick is correct?

The big bold date (13th) is the date I happened to post the item you were reading. The text that follows is the message I sought to communicate. So they are both ‘correct’. They just refer to different things.
Haven’t heard yet if I got a ticket — there was a lottery….
