Posted: 2/15/06 at 10:12pmThis probably should go under the student board but no one really goes there...at all. I was just wondering if anyone here goes to Boston University, and if so have they ever met Elie Wiesel since the last time I checked he still worked there. I'm writing a report now about him and NIGHT and I'm loving the feedback I'm getting from some of my friends but I was just checking to see if there was anything more I could add. Thanks!

Posted: 2/15/06 at 10:16pmWell, I haven't met him, but I heard him give a talk at Meredith College. It was a good speech, and he really stressed how important it is for everyone to know what happened and such, but I'm guessing you probably already knew that.

Posted: 2/15/06 at 10:35pmI feel like it was more about his hope and plans and wishes for the future, but I may be wrong. THis was several years ago. Sorry. :-/
