Recollections

"Academic departments have their own 'lives'. They are not actual biological entities, but they consist of the dynamic mixture of the people-faculty, staff, students-who live and work in them, and each individual faculty, staff and student there over the lifetime of the department constitutes a part of it; kind of like cells, organs, components, etc., of a living organism."
