Response to Simona's "A Course in Michigan's Migrant Housing"

Simona has a great intro that flows really well into the background of her excursion - great combination of narrative and necessary information. Man, and once Mike's character is introduced, the suspense just builds and builds, especially after talking about the vicious dogs and deserted buildings. I wish we would've had some quotes from Mike. meh. Regardless, excellent narrative. I'm very impressed.

Ultimately, Simona's piece does more than tell a story and relate facts; it exposes a relevant, timely issue that affects the community - the safety, physical health, and socioeconomic conditions of migrant workers. I have few negative things to say - that's a first.
