Back to work, I had a few lunches, first with Elias Stein (MAT), Maria DiBattista (ENG), Bartley Hoebel (PSY), Andrea Graham (EEB), Gerard Wysocki (ELE) and Rodney Priestly (CHE)

and then with Ramon van Handel (ORFE), Jim Boon (ANT), Michael Koortbojian (ART), Anna Stilz (POL), Amy Lerman (POL/WWS), Andre Bernevig (PHY)and Rebecca Rix (HIS).

A few days later, Judy Jou, Nick Berry and friend came from Pixar to scout out locations where they might film (or actually not film since it is Pixar).

Then we went to Joy Stocke's house for a celebratory dinner after the Poets and Scientists panel at Labyrinth and saw this bottle of Root liquor which looked better in the light.

Nickolaus Wegmann came by to discuss being acting chair of the department next year while Mike Jennings is away.
