So Drew's doing his math homework, and he notices a typo in the question. Naturally he took the opportunity to be a smart aleck (look at the top answer--click it for a close-up):

Pulled in late Saturday night, and all is well. Coursework starts this morning, and it's great to see our students again!
FYI, if you're looking for photos, I'll be uploading later to the UMF-Global photo site ...

Just in case anyone needs to reach me while I'm in Geneva, I'm doing something silly and posting my Skype info here. My Skype name is gweisserman, and my SkypeIn number is 248-686-1632 (which, conveniently, is 686-1OEC ... heh!). You can call it from any phone ... FYI.

Nice article in the Observer/Eccentric today about OEC ... PDF version is here. Snip:
Ridge campus. "Many times you aren't even aware which students are also attending high school. They will easily become part of our culture."
Another key part of the program is that it is available to all students in the county, not just those living within the boundaries of West Bloomfield schools. "We have 74 students enrolled so far," Weisserman said. "And they come from all over the spectrum. We have students with a 4.0 GPA and students who struggled in their previous school. Our students come from Milford, Royal Oak, all the way up to Oxford. Families see an opportunity here."
