I was impressed by the students' questions and the appearance of interest in what I had to say.

It takes a measure of bravery and honor to make such a decision.

Jerome Wood was part of a generation of path-breakers in the study of Latin America who made it easier for me to do what I do today.

The University was very careful not to give the appearance that we were stealing students from Tulane.

So far we have about 20 students that have expressed interest in the GWS major. We also have between 50-60 minors and some will be switching to the major.

[Of intense interest will be a Cassini determination of the periodicity in the appearance of spokes. This will require monitoring spoke activity from a variety of geometries over several years.] Cassini has found that the SKR period has changed since Voyager, which though hard to believe, may mean that the rotation of Saturn's interior has changed, ... That would be a finding of enormous consequence, so, we'll be looking very closely to see if the frequency of spoke activity has changed too.
