From Leah:

Several of us have very pleasant memories of the Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs, despite a recent tongue-in-cheek mailing that Susan received from AM1500 [Question for candidate who knocks at your door: 1. Have you ever attended the Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs? (If yes, thank them for their time and move them on to the next house.]

Four of our staff attended the Humphrey Institute, with majors in planning, public policy, and program management. In a recent newsletter, I learned that the current entering class is 204 students (my entering class was closer to 100), with the following statistics:

Men/Women: 46%/54%
Minority students: 12%
International students: 12%
Minnesota residents: 62%
Average age: 27

With fond memories of my fellow students, professors and classes....
