President Clinton first Wonk of the Year
Former President Bill Clinton will be on campus to accept the first annual Wonk of the Year award today.
President Bill Clinton Named American University's First Wonk of the Year | American University, Washington, DC
I remember hearing or reading that more presidents have spoken at AU than any other university. My D and her friends roll their eyes at the Wonk campaign though. She said tickets to Bill Clinton's speech were gone rapidly.

Watched a lot of the Army - AU game last week.
Can they give the Wonk a rest? They seemed to run the spot during every commercial break. Maybe apps are up due to the campaign, who knows?

D said the tickets were gone by the time the announcement was made--some "insider trading" there I imagine.

My daughter's facebook status - "Everyone is going to see Bill Clinton and I'm going to rehearsal. Typical." Yep, that's about right.

I guess my D was lucky to snag a ticket but all I could think about was... what ever happened to Monica Lewinsky?

My daughter was there as well. She said she got the ticket two minutes after they went up. She must have been there at her computer waiting.
