@Christopher Kelley Does anyone know exactly when and where the Oliver Sacks talk is going to be?
@Alum It’s a bad sign when the neurology department has more Sacks than the football team.
@Sacks. He’s the man.
@welcome! I’d love to get to some of his lectures. Good stuff.
@Hahahahaha. “Welcome Squid Overlords”???

@Alum Too bad CU recently lost Jeffrey Sacks (not to be confised with Jeffrey Sachs) to UC-Riverside. He was a lecturer in MEALAC but is now an assistant professor at UCR.
