It's more than slightly delicious, having deans and others that guide
your academic fate serve up some late night chow while studying for
finals. Kumble Subbaswamy (far left), dean of the IU College of Arts
and Sciences, Kathleen Matthies (center) of the Career Planning and
Placement Center and Joan Middendorf of the Teaching Resource Center
were among participants. At far right is Tamera Alexander of Indianapolis.
