Snowy day

It’s snowy today. Yesterday’s happy sun was short-lived.

Wednesdays are field study days, and thus we have no lectures, just trips with our courses.  Today at 1pm my core course, Migration & Identity, is meeting with people from a magazine called New Times, published to for asylum seekers to educate and inform about refugees and their experiences in Denmark.  After that, we’ll visit Sandholm Asylum Center, where asylum seekers are kept who applications were rejected but cannot return to their home country for fear of persecution or other danger.  I’m sure I’ll have much more to say on the subject once I get back this evening, but here’s a link to an Al Jazeera article from last  year about the plight of asylum seekers in Denmark.
