Two years ago a professor in Wisconsin checked her mail and found a most unusual letter...from an Iraqi graduate student asking for scholarly advice.  Since then professor Susan Friedman has exchanged hundreds of e-mails with academics in Iraq.  And she's heard harrowing accounts of academic life there, where hundreds of professors have been killed.  In this hour of To the Best of Our Knowledge, we'll talk about the dangers facing Iraqi Intellectuals and hear from a celebrated Iraqi poet.
