Originally we planned to be in England for at least a couple years, but have you found that life doesn't always stick to "the plan"? We sure have, and we're excited to announce our newest detour.
After attending a seminar presented by a professor who splits his time between Oxford and Columbia University, Justin decided to look further into programs offered at Columbia. He discovered an incredible program that appeals to his career goals perfectly. He applied to the program in December and yesterday we found out he was accepted!
He will graduate from Oxford with a Masters of Science degree in Medical Anthropology and will pursue a 2-year Masters of Public Health with an emphasis in Global Health Policy and Management. We will be here through the summer as Justin finishes his dissertation and then will move to New York to start Columbia in the fall.
As of right now that's our new plan. We're excited for the adventures that await us, but are happy to savor the time we have left here in Oxford as well.

This is wonderful news Jill and Justin! We're excited for you. What a difference to go from Oxford to NYC. Hmmm. I'm assuming they have safe student housing and that you're not going to settle in questionable neighborhoods. I do watch Law and Order faithfully you know, so I'm very familiar with all the areas! Love you and you're in our prayers especially concerning Bryn's entrance into this world. Love, Grandma Susan and Richard
New York...how exciting! Congrats to Justin.
