Brings back a lot of memories. After my tour with the army in 1967-68 in Vietnam but not quite ready to return to college and not finished with Asia I spent another year in Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia between 68 -69. Registered at LSU Baton Rouge fall 1969 and got a private room D14 in the Pentagon and never left that room until 1972 when I graduated since I took all 3 semesters every year. On my GI bill ($165 a month) and working every semester break washing dishes, making bed and cleaning living quarters on offshore platforms in the gulf I managed to pay all my dorm, tuition and college expenses graduating debt free. I had learned to speak Thai during my one year backpacking Asia in 68-69 and to my surprise there were over 100 Thai students on campus. Needless to say I became friends with all a joined the LSU Student Government as the Foriegn Student Lasion Officer to provide help and guidance to all foriegn students. I was majoring in Fine Arts Sculpture and did very well exhibiting and winning awards for my work, even a very nice article about my work in the Morning Advocate Newspaper. One of my sculptures was kept in the office of the Student Unions office and the Dean of the Landscape Architecture Department had one of my sculptures in his yard. Even though I had been successful with my art at LSU I did not fell I would be successful in art after graduation in 1972. Having learned to weld in Sculpture class and still obsessed with seeing the world I got a job as a welder building pipelines in the jungles of New Guinea in 1973 that work became my life working through out Africa, The Middle East and Asia ending when I was 67 and now 10 retired very well of with my wife and son in Thailand.
