I was lucky enough to have the office directly below hers for a few years (yes, one of the many anachronistic things about Georgetown is the notion of a 22 year old having his own office... in a fancy Georgetown townhouse...). She was only there a couple hours a week, but those were invariably the most laughter-filled hours.
Here's to being able to confront head-on many of the worst things the world has to offer - and still be able to laugh. There's a real lesson about humanity in that.
Now, I've got to figure out where I put my signed copy of that damn "Read My Pins" book that I got as a thank you for literally roaming campus and pressganging students into attending the talk for it in Gaston so that it would look at least half-filled. Turns out a coffee table book about brooches is not most undergrads cup of tea!
RIP Professor. Pravda vítězí.

Tremendous public servant, and a wonderful addition to the Georgetown faculty. To say she'll be missed is awfully trite and minimizes what she meant to us. Requiescat in pace, Madam Secretary.
