Lafayette Convention & Visitors Commission www.lafayette.travel 337.232.3737 800.346.1958 E I've gotten hundreds of colorful PostIt® notes from Dr. Ray Authement since I began working at UL Lafayette in 1993. He attaches them to magazines he receives from other universities and forwards to me. I took the first few dozen for granted; they all looked alike. One day, I noticed a PostIt® note that was different. Instead of “FYI,” he had written something like, “Page 20. Article is well done.” Of course, I immediately flipped to that page and studied it. EDITOR’S NOT It took quite a few more “FYIs” and a couple more “See inside” messages to grasp what should have been obvious to me from the start: He apparently looks through all of the magazines before sending them along. I was amazed because of his already heavy workload. I’ve thought about those PostIt® notes a lot since Doc announced in late April that he plans to retire. It occurred to me that they reveal quite a bit about him and how he conducts busi- ness at the university. -

Fall 2008 Fall Lothe Magazineuisiane of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette
La Fall 2008 Fall LOTHE MAGAZINEUISIANE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF LOUISIANA AT LAFAYETTE DR. JOSEPH SAVOIE Meet the university’s new leader E The huge press was just getting cranked up to its full speed. It was printing a special section that listed the names of donors who had recently contributed to the university. That section would be included in La Louisiane. I picked up a copy and my heart sank. The pages were sup- posed to have a subtle background, ghost-like images of clouds that were almost imperceptible. But something was terribly wrong. The background resembled the hide of a Holstein cow. Big dark EDITor’s NOT EDITor’s blotches made it difficult to read a few of the donors’ names. I had two choices. I could allow the press to continue spitting out mottled pages. Or, I could ask the foreman to shut down the press so we could determine why the pages had this unexpected look and then reprint them correctly. This might seem like a no-brainer. But when a press is halted during a run, it’s sort of like a taxi idling at a red light. It’s not moving but the meter keeps running. And trust me, an idling press costs much more than an idling taxi. This was in the mid-1990s, when our budget was especially tight. So, which would be worse – bovine-like pages or a substan- tial extra expense? I had not been working for the university long, so I didn’t know what to expect. Would I have to pay for the mis- take personally? Would I lose my job? I quickly called my boss, Julie Simon-Dronet.
