My name is Andrew Smith. I am a senior at the University of New Hampshire. I am majoring in Political Science and English Literature. I have been living in an apartment on Edgewood Road this semester and I really enjo living off campus for a change. Hopefully I will be graduating at the end of this semester and moving on to Graduate school for International Organizations.
I just got back to UNH this semester from a semester-long internship in Washington DC with the Tharwa Foundation, a Syrian human rights organization. I enjoyed living in DC very much and I had a lot of fun learning about nongovernmental organizations and how they work. From my time in DC I have become much more involved in the Israeli Palestinian conflict and getting involved with groups who lobby for a two state solution.
I spend a lot of time on computers, mostly writing and playing video games. I am excited to take this class and learn some basic XHTML so I can use it at future jobs or as a hobby if I ever want to create a web site for friends or family. So far I am enjoying learning about the web and hopefully I will be able to understand more about the internet than ever before.
