Speaking of rural universities...

Just saw a site that a friend of mine is running. In fact, he's running more than that. Brian McElroy helped to establish the first rural university in Haiti, which is one of the world's poorest countries. Now he's running a marathon to raise funds for it, even though after his first marathon 4 years ago he swore he'd never run another. That's commitment. I can vouch for Brian's character, if you'd like to donate. Check it out:
