Item Arthritis Clinical Study Center(1964-07-01) UnknownItem Bear in a Bowtie(2023-08) Wang, JenniferI participated in a 5-day 100-word memoir challenge, and one of the prompts was to write about an item from your childhood. I was stuck until I remembered one of my first stuffed animals and the story behind her name, which may have been an early indication that I never latched onto gender stereotypes. This piece was published earlier this year in Exist Otherwise.Item Between a Block, Fifty Hot Wheels and a Hard Place(2022-08) Hoppe, CherylReflections on raising 5 sons.Item Death's Intimate Familiarity(2023-08) Doucette, DavidI am a 20-year veteran of the Emergency room including about 5 years in a Pediatric ER. Also, I am an Army veteran (army recon, not medical). I have seen more death than any one person should but through it all I have made an intentional decision to see the world in a positive lens. There is so much sorrow but if you look, so much beauty and wonderment.Item Dr. Jenkins honored by Medical Branch(1974-05-31) Weeks, JohnItem The Duck Farmer(2018) Patel, ReinaPLEASE TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT INSPIRED THIS WORK: While traveling on a houseboat with my family in South India, I woke up one morning to an intriguing scene in the waters around me. I could not let the inspiration pass without documenting it in some form; hence this poem was born.Item Ecdysis(2018) Wang, JenniferPLEASE TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT INSPIRED THIS WORK: I love burlesque, and I found H.L. Menken's word for a dancer, "ecdysiast", particularly curious, as in science, it describes the process of a snake shedding the skin. I thought I would marry the art of burlesque with scientific observation in this poem.Item Eugene McDermott to receive high University of Texas award(1969-05-21) Chappell, Frank W., Jr.; Weeks, JohnItem Four-Letter Words(2019) Wang, JenniferPLEASE TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT INSPIRED THIS WORK: Before #MeToo , there was a debate about whether comics have the right to tell rape jokes. Around the same time, I was becoming a more vocal feminist, standing up for my friends who were a survivor and talking about my own experiences with crossed boundaries that left a bit of trauma. At some point, I felt my voice was being drowned out in the censorship debate so I wrote this poem to make my thoughts heard.Item Hold On(2023-08) Walker, Deborah "Debbie"The inspiration were the human connections and innovations that care providers made in an uncertain world those facing death in isolation when family could not be with them. This is written for those who made sure to hold on to the hands as the ravished body surrendered to infection. Hold on to the love, and to our human spirits between us even during death.Item [News Item](1954-04-25) Aagaard, George N.Item [News Item](1953-04-27) Aagaard, George N.Item [News Item](1952-05-07) Aagaard, George N.Item [News Item](1952-07-23) Aagaard, George N.Item [News Item](1953-03-27) Aagaard, George N.Item [News Items](1952-11-21) Aagaard, George N.Item [News Items](1952-08-05) Aagaard, George N.Item [News Release](1969-07-10) Chappell, Frank W., Jr.; Weeks, JohnItem [News Release](1969-01-15) Chappell, Frank W., Jr.; Fenley, BobItem [News Release](1969-11-14) Chappell, Frank W., Jr.; Weeks, John
