OTHER NEWS, ANNOUNCEMENTS, & ACHIEVEMENTS
Not much to note here (all the more reason to gather for the latest news and updates), but congratulations
are in order for Carl Langefeld. On Thursday 10/01/09, Carl was awarded a prestigious award at the
medical center for his research in the area of genetics. This is quite an honor for Carl as well as those who
work with him and the department. Sadly, there is a sour note. All the award recipients had to give a
speech at the ceremony, and unfortunately during Carl’s speech he was interrupted by Kanye West.
Congrats Carl!!!
See if you can guess the 2 Alumni members based on these clues (answers at the bottom):

Although I was part-time, I always gave full-time effort. My attention to detail was an asset to any
study and Asthma was one of them. If you are looking for an element of a hint, you could say my
last name is rich in potassium and I currently reside in the gumbo capital of the world. Who am I?
I used to run the section represented by this newsletter. My wife’s name is one of the few words
Ozzy Osborne can clearly pronounce. Being where I’m from, I’ve probably heard every kissing
cousin joke known to man or woman. If I made a monogrammed dessert people would expect it to
not melt in their hands. Who am I?
LOL FUNNY!
How Curious Jim learned to mind his own
business:
One day Curious Jim was walking past a
mental institution. The building was
surrounded by a high concrete fence but he
could hear several of the residents in the
recreation yard shouting ’13!’ ’13!’ ’13!’
Intrigued, Curious Jim was desperate to find
out what was going on. He found a small hole
in the fence just big enough for him to get a
look at what was going on. He put his eye up
to the hole to get a look and one of the
residents poked him in the eye with a stick.
Jim shocked as well as in pain recoiled back
and grabbed his eye and at that time he could
hear the residents enthusiastically shouting
’14!’ ’14!’ ’14!’
