Greetings Friends, Family, and Readers:
I want to announce that I will be attending Columbia University's School of International and Public Administration to work on a Masters in Public Administration in Environmental Science and Policy. I've accepted the offer officially as of yesterday and I'm very excited about what awaits me in New York City. The competition was tough and I was accepted before the final deadline, so it makes me feel good that Columbia selected me so early in the process.
Thank-you so much everyone who has supported me in the process, both abroad in Namibia and back home in the States.
Cheers,
A.E. Price

Lincoln Journal Star Article
Greetings Friends, Family, and Readers:

I bring to you great news! My internship with WWF-Namibia was featured as a front page Sunday feature today with 5 of my pictures taken during my journeys. Joe Duggan from the LJS is a great story teller and did a great job summarizing my experiences and showing the link between Namibia and the Sand Hills of Nebraska.
Weather and a flat tire on Joe's car almost stopped the story from running on the press, but I was so happy to finally be able and sit down with such a great agricultural reporter. Its not everyday one has an opportunity to speak about issues and reach out to people, and I took every second with him seriously.
Its been a roller coaster of delayed printings, weather issues to come and talk to Joe in person, and required lots of patience. And it was a huge surprise for me to hear word that this story was going to potentially contend with front page! I've truly learned the power that images can carry in journalism and making things happen.
But it was all I could do to get my hands on a copy! I first read the story late at night on my black berry. This weekend I was with the family in Omaha celebrating a belated Christmas celebration due to extreme blizzards around the past holidays. I couldn't get my hands on a physical copy till I reached Lincoln, because everyone in Omaha was carrying The World Herald instead!
A huge smile rushed over my face when I finally stopped at a Kum and Go just off of the 27th st exit in Lincoln and the guy gave me a weird look when I bought 7 copies!
I hope you all enjoy the story!
