Osler's Razor

At least it is cold here-- I am in Boston at this conference. This morning I spoke to the group about some of the things we do at Baylor, and got a good response from an audience which included six law school deans-- a great group to hear the good news about Baylor.

Boston College is a remarkable place. I love the town and the college itself, even though it is about 40 below zero outside. I had the pleasure of being seated for lunch not only with Dean Starr and Dean Brauch, but Bert Garza, who is the Provost here at BC. He is a Baylor grad twice (BS and MD, before getting a Ph.D. from MIT), and has been very successful here. I was surprised to find a Baylor guy in charge of academics at Boston College, but perhaps I shouldn't be. It seems lately that I am running into impressive Baylor grads all over the place.

After the sessions (and before dinner in the North End), I went out with Rory Ryan to visit his sister who is a first-year at Harvard Law, which is supposed to be pretty good.
