I had lunch with 4 of my HKS MC/MPA classmates today (all at least 10 years younger than me): A US Navy Seal officer, who couldnt tell us where any of his recent Middle East deployments were or what he did there. An American-Saudi who grew up in Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Bahrain AND Virginia who was installing large solar-power farms across the Middle East…before picking up her MBA at MIT last year. A Kenyan IT specialist whose large multinational dispatched her all over the world, including a stint in Poland, where she noted for years she was the only black person in the city. And a former Armenian military officer who is now an international affairs advisor to the President of Armenia. He had the best line of lunch. Very somber, he diplomatically stated the worlds Armenian diaspora was, perhaps, not best represented by the Kardashians. Im in for such an amazing year.
