On page 8 of the October Engage, we incorrectly identified Bryant Professor Leger Morrison’s year of retirement as 1972. He taught at Bryant until 1983. Mary C. (Bedard) Falcone ’79 wrote in to let us know that Dr. Morrison was one of her favorite professors, and he presented her with a special award in 1978 for typing 102 net words a minute. Thank you, Mary!
