What a beautiful day in sunny Tallahassee. It started out at 9 AM with a catered breakfast at the College of Information. Then - at 10 AM Dr. Callison delivered the Srygley Lecture at the College of Information's Convocation. It was also the first time at Nancy marched with her cap and gown on at FSU since graduating here in 1990. Dr. Darrell Burke received the Outstanding Faculty Award selected by the students. This summer Darrell spent some time with us in Hawaii. Dr. Tom Hart and Dr. Jane Robbins were awarded Emeritus status which is the highest honor that can be given to a retired faculty member. Jane is the person that hired Nancy and then retired before Nancy got here. Tom retired and played a big part in recruiting Nancy to FSU.
After the ceremony - we went to the stadium for the Homecoming game with Maryland. In a closely fought match - FSU came from 10 points down to beat UMD - 35-27. Dean Dennis provided great seats near the 50 yard line. He also visited us from his exclusive seats in the President's Box directly behind us.
After the game - Nancy and Harry celebrated at Harry's Restaurant.
