“ 20 years went by so quickly !
In between term papers and
senior life decisions , we chose

Bush , kept in touch via AOL and
flip phones , and contemplated
the potentially growing hole in
our ozone layer . UCSD was such
a strong educational foundation
for my career , and I ’ m looking
forward to celebrating the 20
years since then . Join me this
October 18 – 20 !”

for the pure sake of furthering
science , and most importantly ,
have fun while you do that .”
