UT El Paso's loss of Maggy Smith will be Saint-Mary-of-the-Woods College. While I was a grad student at UTEP, Maggy Smith was a great asset to the administration and as liaison to many of us who needed a word or advice now and then.
I wish her the very best in what will hopefully be a cooler clime and other new opportunities.
