There’s a sweet security guard who works the night shift at the biomed library. (As I found out when I offered him a cookie one day, he’s “got the sugars”…must be from Pittsburgh.) Every time one of us enters or exits, he excitedly waves at us with a huge grin stretched from ear to ear, an whispers (so as not to disrupt others), “Okay, Doc, hi there, Doc.”
I recently found out that he calls us as such so that he can say, when we graduate. that he was the first one to call us “Doctor.”

He’s so nice! He also used to be a police officer and worked in the gang division – very interesting man… He’ll tell you all about it if you ask (make sure you have some time).
whoa! gosh…i can’t imagine him working in the gang division, he’s such a softy (in personality 🙂 )
