traveling the world for a few years and then on hunkering down to start a social movement against the War on Drugs, which he believes has replaced Jim Crow as the racist policy of the United States. If you re reading this on Friday night, Shabbat Shalom! Melissa (Fong Yee) Yap was born in the Year of the Monkey in Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia. Thanks to her sisters, Mae and Maxine, who refused to let her wallow as a high school drop out, Melissa will be graduating this May (2007) from Columbia University. Also, much to her amazement, she is a member of the Golden Key International Society and the Honor Society of the School of General Studies. One of her discombobulated prose pieces from her thesis, "Stories of New Tongue," will be published in the Tablet's Spring 2007 Issue. Melissa has decided to brave graduate school instead of joining the ranks and files in employment; though she hopes to, someday, have her own intern.
