Thanks, Pat...We'll miss you.

Last night, we all gathered to say good-bye to one of our favorite professors, Pat Curtin. Pat (second from the right on the couch) is leaving UNC for a chaired professorship at Oregon and we students wanted to have a chance to say good-bye, and thanks.

Pat is one of those rare professors that I hope I can emulate someday: she cares enough to teach us how to write well (as well as teach us the course material) and she cares enough to know when we need help with something other than what's on the syllabus.

Thanks, Pat. Oregon's gain is our loss.
