I was recently honored to be awarded the staff of the year by the College of Communication at the University of Texas. On an overcast Sunday morning, we joined a number of students from our college who have earned honors in their coursework for a very nice brunch. <\/p>\n

During the singing of “The Eyes of Texas” at the end of the brunch, Madeline sang along. Her rendition was something along the lines of “Daa La Meea Ba aaah Beah Thppt Laa”. I like to think this means she is a happy Texan-born-girl who might go to UT someday. Jen and Michele (as proper, impassioned graduates of Texas A&M University) insist that her rendition was sung as an unironic impassioned protest statement made from behind enemy lines given the assault which was inflicted upon her ears.<\/p>\n

\nCongratulations Major Award Winner<\/p>\n
