Moderator: Best of luck to Dr. Mangum whose graduate work was done at SUNY Buffalo. A tip of the hat to acting President Larry Robinson for a job well done trying to lead A & M out of its lowest hour following the death of band member Robert Champion. Six students have yet to go go to trial in the death of Mr. Champion.
