Alumni Updates
Here is what is going on with some of our alumni.

Miguel David Acosta, MPPA 2003. "I am currently in my second year at Lincoln Law School."

Perry Dean Gross, MPPA 2004. "I am working in the U.S. Department of State's Overseas Building Operations, constructing a new embassy in Cameroon. An interesting undertaking if you have ever been in Francophone West Africa. For those alumni of a collaborative bent, the elements provided in the MPPA program can be invaluable within many diverse sets of conditions, such as a design/build contract administered by the State department, designed/construtced by a US contractor, using a Turkish and Camerronian work force and products spanning the globe. There are not just interests that surface but, cultural norms to try to comprehend. Everyday is enjoyable.

"My wife is assistant director of the American School of Yaounde and teaches AP science courses. Our contracts are up in the Summer of 2005 and we are 'exploring options.'"
