Tell Us About It Due to my mistake on document work, I had to stay at a Canadian airport since I was rejected by the US customs. David helped me safely travel to the US and get the correct document. David could have been angry at so many things. I was the one who did not pay attention to the his emails and made a mistake. I had such a bad connection when I was calling him at the airport since all I had was the public wifi provided by the airport. And it was weekend when I called him. Nevertheless, he was unbelievably kind all the time. It was literally unbelievable. I would have totally understood even if he said bad words to me. He is such an angel. He helped me with so many things. He is very sincere in helping the international students to be safe and comfortable at MIT. I think he does so much more than what he has to do. MIT and its students are so lucky to have him! Thank you so much, David.
