Just a quick plug for the summer seminars put on by the Institute for Humane Studies, in particular the Social Change Workshop if there's any graduate students among L&P's crazed fanatics. All the seminars are a great experience, and grad students will get a great deal out of this one in particular. You can find out more at Wil Wilkinson's blog. [Full disclosure: I have taught at IHS seminars for a decade now, but that shouldn't discourage anyone.]
