New students meet the man behind 'Oscar Wao'

At this year's Helen and Philip Brecher New Student Forum, author Junot Diaz talked with the newest Brandeis undergraduates about his writing career and his Pulitzer Prize-winning book, "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao," which students read over the summer. The New Student Forum serves as a communal academic experience that introduces students to academic life at Brandeis.
