How I spent my Friday noon hour

The life of a dean is filled with many meetings and many working meals. The lunch I had on Friday was a bit different, however. I attended the Department of Geosciences Potluck and Ugly Holiday Sweater Contest, as the surprise guest judge.

The lunch was fine and the sweaters were fabulous. I had a difficult time picking a winner and thus I sought the input of the audience. Their clear favorite and in retrospect mine belonged to Adam Huston, an assistant professor. For a picture of Adam, wearing the sweater, and me click here, but don't say I didn't warn you.
