These were my second and third days on the job. A photographer came to take pictures of me for a campus rag, so I took her picture and then got an action shot of her. I had lunch with Bill Russel and met in the afternoon with Maureen Nash before Shirley came by to discuss various things -- among them a concern that my original picture of her could be improved. Of course, she was right.

Next, I went to see the Molecular Biology leadership -- Tom Shenk and Lynn Enquist and Larry Peterson who has my old job came by for pointers and advice.

And, so days 2 and 3 were quickly resolved.
