I have perhaps an unfortunate amount of UVA pride, most certainly encouraged by the role two alumni played in the unraveling of Sarah Palin’s image preceding the 2008 election:
Yesterday, Paul Offit gave one of our last lectures of Mod 2–a two-hour story of vaccines. I have to smile every time I remember that I’m at the same institution as the guy who left Stephen Colbert speechless, not to mention my bioethics prof who made Michele Bachmann eat her words.
