Really? I'm not going to say anything.
It's my great honor to announce that your teacher,
Professor Andrea Herstowski, is being honored
as a William T. Kemper fellow this year.
One of only ten on the entire University of Kansas.
JEFFREY: Andrea, just congratulations. ANDREA: Thank you.
The Kemper fellowship honors outstanding teaching and advising,
and it's really my great honor to share this with our stellar faculty.
And so I want to also mention to everyone that this is an
award that carries a very significant monetary acknowledgment,
which we will present to you minus the IRS contribution.
And to do that I'm pleased to introduce our sponsor,
Mark Heider, from Commerce Bank.
Thank you, Jeff.
Commerce Bank is the trustee for the W.T. Kemper Foundation,
and on behalf of the Foundation and the KU Endowment Association
we'd like to present you this financial award of 7,500 dollars.
Congratulations.
Wow. Thank you.
[applause]
Well, thank you very much. Thanks.
It's their first day with me and in the program
so now they think I'm some kind of rockstar.
Now I can really be hard.
