To add on to my previous comment, this article can also used in the classroom. It gives a difference perspective from the typical commentaries or stories in the school textbook. I would only select certain diary entry for my students since I want to to be engaged and to keep it simple. I really like the part where he meets the president and was shocked at the lack of ceremonial rituals in receiving an important document. This could be really interesting topic for a class discussion because many of my students experienced similar culture shock when they arrived in America.
