I knew that I would eventually cross paths with royalty. “Which royalty?” you ask. I will give you one hint: dried, salted cod.

That’s right folks. The Crown Prince of Norway and I have been selected as Alumni of the Year for UC Berkeley’s International House. The Prince I can understand but I was a little shocked at my name in there. What happened to all the Nobel Laureates? I can only assume they have already been honored.

On April 7th, there will be a ceremony at I-House. If you are an alumni, I hope you can be there. No offense to the good folks of Norway, but I hope they will not be serving dried, salted cod. But even if they do, I will eat it in the name of world peace. I hope you will join me.
