I am so grateful to our faculty, staff, students, alumni and friends in the Eastern panhandle for their fabulous gold and blue spirit. And I predict the babies I met will grow up to be Mountaineers!

I am truly blown away and honored by this incredible portrait by WVU's own Professor Naijun Zhang, which will live at WVU Medicine. If only I looked that good in person!

I had my last faculty senate meeting with faculty leadership over the past ten years. We had a few boxing matches over the years but were always respectful. Thanks for great leadership.
