Joe
Hough, the new dean on the block at Vanderbilt nine years ago, was making
the rounds, introducing himself to fellow deans at the University. He
scheduled an appointment with his counterpart at the Owen Graduate School
of Management, Martin S. Geisel.
“At
the appointed time, I walked into Marty’s office and sat down,” Hough
recalled in his eulogy delivered at a memorial service for Geisel, |
| who died in February.“There was
this big bear of a man and sitting behind his desk.He rose and shook
my hand and then came the booming announcement: ‘I have to warn you
that I am very wary of preachers of any sort.’” (see
story) |

will be able to be heard up to a mile and a half away from the center
of campus.

| Vigilant eyes oversee treatment
of animals

As the door opens to a room where Galago monkeys live, a petting-zoo-like
smell wafts towards an unsuspecting visitor. It seems as if the cages
have not been cleaned in days.
“Actually,
this is the way they like it,” said Jeffrey D. Schall, associate professor
of psychology and director of the animal facility in Wilson Hall.
Galagos, small primates also known as bushbabies, establish their
territory with their smells and exhibit signs of distress if their
cages are cleaned too often, Schall explained to a reporter on a recent
tour of the Wilson facility. (see story) |
