Paul Rusesabagina is coming to our campus on Wednesday. This convocation has been much anticipated because he is such a strong and impressive man. He saved over 1000 people and possibly more then 1500 people. In Rwanda, he was just a simple family man who worked as a hotel manager at a ritzy Portuguese hotel. As war raged around him between the Hutut's and the Tutsi's he was forced to beg, plead and bribe rebels to keep his family and many many others alive.
I have not met him yet and I cannot give a first person account but I am sure he will be a very inspiring and interesting man.
