<p class="MsoNormal">friends: on Monday we have a wonderful opportunity to interact with still another African hero. Dr. Marape Marape, from the Botswana-Baylor Center for Excellence for Children’s Health will speak at 2:00 pm in W115 Grover Center. He is
director of research for what I view as just about the best clinic Ihave seen on the African continent. He had planned to be here for our conference on children’s health in March, but a passport thief disrupted those plans….</p>
