Of all the fora I’ve attended during our college week‚ the forum on family dynasties was probably the most entertaining one. It’s the least boring one‚ that’s for sure (not to mention we had to run from the crowded little theatre to the ESI‚ the venue of said forum‚ lest we’d be late and not have anymore seats.)
