Classes have stopped

Great news (sarcasm). Professor Miguel has emailed me to tell me that classes have recently stopped as there are too many broken chargers and power strips to be able to effectively hold class.

Ugh.

Two years in, the computers are holding up great but the chargers and power strips are terrible. Looking for solutions that can keep things going. All of the ones I can think of involve MONEY!

The teachers are moving forward with the Embassy of Taiwan slowly but surely. I feel like I need to go there to talk with the Embassy myself, as the Ministry of Education isn't really doing the job!

Stay tuned for the next episode...
