He said he also tries to instill in them the formula for a. successful life. “You might say I add a little Ori- ental philosophy to it (teaching),” said Roe, a native of Korea who has taught at Samford for 25 years. He said he occasionally throws a “sermonette” into his lectures. “I tell them (pharmacy students) that when they get to college, they are no longer little kids, but are grown-up,” he said. “Irespect them, and for them to gain respect from Say Saysombath/ Assistant Photo Editor Good Morning, America me and others, they have to act responsibly, When they graduate, Ruth Hudson, a junior home economics and business majo, they will be community leaders.” Hundreds of Samford students gathered to be filmed for the Roe has been named 1993 recipi- said she called the people at Good Morning, America, who popular morning show.
