Seriously though, I wonder if we'll get involved in the studies of concussions and such that permeates the sports world. If nothing else, we'd certainly have the study participants available to look at the effects of alcohol on brain function. 8)

The director's undergraduate is from LSU so unlikely ;)

But more importantly, her PhD is from TULANE!
