David Page has listed me at both the 20 and 25 year marks. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

son? Yes, I adopted him shortly after meeting him when he first started
working at TU. (I find it's much cheaper and easier if you adopt
them AFTER college.) I asked him if he was old enough to be sitting
in the bar with us----and after I recovered from the dirty look, we figured out
that I was just barely old enough to be his mother and I've been
"Mom" and he's been "Son" ever since. My husband
didn't meet him until several years later, when we were going opposite
directions on a long escalator in Washington---the calls of "Mom!",
"Son!" and "Meet Your Dad!" caused some amusement. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

award was for 20 years of service, all at the University of Oklahoma.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

to wondering”. Does that mean Pam has a total of 45 years served at OU in
Financial Aid? Does it mean that she worked so hard that she received
credit for 45 years even though her tenure was only 20 or 25 years?
Interesting question. Don’t you think?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
