<p>Hi!</p>
<p>I am an international student (as you might have guessed:) ) and I really need to know the date the international students orientation begins. I wrote e-mails, but I am still waiting for a reply from Smith. Right now I am researching the opportunities for buying plane tickets and it's important for me to know my exact date of departure from Bulgaria. I would be thankful for any inputs.</p>

<p>Here's the info. you need:</p>

<p>Whoops! SORRY! That was for 2003. (They also had the dates for 2004.)</p>
<p>I'd e-mail the Associate Dean for International Students:
Hrayr C. Tamzarian
Email: <a href="mailto:htamzari@email.smith.edu">htamzari@email.smith.edu</a></p>
<p>By the way, where in Bulgaria? My d. has a violin made for her by a wonderful maker in Plovdiv, and our cousin has an art program involving Roma children in Bulgaria (and adopted one.)</p>
<p>Thanks, mini!</p>
<p>I also found some out-dated information on international students orientation, so I'll definitely e-mail Tamzarian as soon as possible.</p>
<p>Anyway, I live in Central Bulgaria, in a rather small town. Plovdiv is far away from my hometown, but I've visited it numerous times and it's a wonderful place. </p>
