Yes, Carl Martray was a wonderful dean, as was Bobby Anderson before him. Mercer was fortunate to get Martray back (he was at Mercer prior to coming to USM). Both had integrity. I have often wondered why USM has a history of attracting capable people, but often kicks them in the head.

Hey Lamont,

Carl came to USM from Western Kentucky University, where he'd been for 27 years. I don't think he was ever at Mercer. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Jo

PS I agree that he was a wonderful dean.

Retired prof, you are absolutely correct. My error. Careless me. Carl Martray was at Western Kentucky prior to moving to USM. I suppose the good ones go and come so fast around here that, as my 3rd grade teacher used to say about me, "Lamont, you thinking cap is not on straight." I should have remembered Martray was at Western Kentucky because he and I once talked about that great 50's-era popular singing group, The Hilltoppers, was organized while they were students at Western Kentucky.
