Faculty,
Staff, Students Resolve for a Better 2005
The
New Year is upon us and
many members of the UCSD
community rang in 2005
by celebrating with friends
and loved ones. The New
Year isn't just about
noise makers and party
hats at midnight, however,
but is also a time for
reflecting on the past
and setting goals for
the future. If you haven't
thought about yours yet,
here are some resolutions
from around campus to
inspire you.
|
|
"My resolution for 2005 is to volunteer more and to watch less reality TV."
— Jill Gibson, Rady School of Management
|
|
|
"My
New Year's
resolution
is to eat
more salads
and fewer
coffee cakes."
— Kyle Lacy, Graduate Student Chemistry and Biochemistry |
|
|
|
“My
New Year's
resolution
is the same
every year:
to get kicked
out of all
the elite
levels of
the frequent
flier programs
of the airlines.
We scientists
travel far
too much,
and these
various elite
levels are
badges of
shame! So
far, I have
succeeded
in getting
demoted but
not yet expelled.
I like this
resolution
because its
success is
measurable,
unlike vowing
to be a better
human being,
father, husband,
scientist."
— Richard C. J. Somerville, Distinguished Professor,
Scripps Institution of Oceanography |

“My
2005 New Year's
resolution
is to begin
gathering
information
for law school
and doctoral
programs,
finding new
activities
for exercising,
and lastly
traveling
to spend more
time with
my family
and friends."
—
Clarissa Lonn,
MPA, Student
Organizations
Advisor-Greek
and Social
"I myself have always liked to live by a quote written by Les Brown. "Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you'll land among the stars".

—Ed Fink, Division Administrator of Hospital Medicine |
|

“Honestly, mine was to join the gym, go back to school, and pay off some debt. Boring, isn't it?”

listener.....
