@mcgoblue @tricknole @bigten @SEC Weighting of ag research was changed which put more schools at risk of losing AAU. Indiana's research hospital is in Indianapolis, 80 miles from Bloomington. There was another thing about the National Academy of the Sciences affiliates too.

@tricknole @Expansion_Crush @bigten @SEC If I recall correctly, the medical school or hospital was not on campus and the rules changed about that. Which led to them being out as AAU. Yes most Big schools voted them out. They were AAU when voted into the Big.

@Expansion_Crush @bigten @SEC B1g schools were on the AAU committee that recommended the expulsion vote go before the full membership & then voted to remove Nebraska
B1g schools removed Nebraska from aau. Nebraska was never aau & b1g at same time
Ou would've been invited by b1g? So they disprove your point?

On September 11, 2001, 24-year-old Welles Remy Crowther was working on the 104th floor of the World Trade Center’s South Tower when Flight 175 hit the building.
He was trapped 27 floors above the impact zone a place almost nobody survived.
But instead of only trying to save himself, Welles stayed behind to help others escape.
Before heading into the smoke, he left his mom a voicemail:
“Mom, this is Welles. I want you to know I’m OK.”
Welles was also a volunteer firefighter back home in New York, and he always carried a red bandana his father gave him as a kid.
Survivors later remembered seeing a man with a red bandana covering his face, leading people to safety, carrying injured victims down stairs, and going back up again and again to help more people.
He reportedly saved at least 18 lives before the South Tower collapsed.
For months, nobody knew who “the man in the red bandana” was.
Then in 2002, his mother read survivor stories in a newspaper and realized they were talking about her son.
Welles Remy Crowther will always be remembered as a real hero. ❤️

Today, I've had a phrase going over and over in my head.
"God doesn't miss a detail."
After receiving my PET scan results yesterday, I had my routine treatment today, which included a check-in with my oncologist. When she walked in, she pulled up the PET imaging and said, "I want to explain something to you. I need you to understand how significant this is."
She showed me the findings from my original scan and compared them to the results from yesterday. She goes, "This isn't normal. It's exceptional, really. We just don't see this type of response when you're as early into your treatment. It's exceptional. Like, we don't see this."
On the imaging, everything is significantly smaller. Two spots are gone, and everything that is still visible is shrinking and decreasing in activity.
She looked at me with a grin and said, "Emily, you're trending towards no evidence of disease (or N.E.D, which is metastatic's version of remission)."
So, a medication I was told two months ago wasn't even worth trying by a different oncologist is now exceeding normal expectations with a "truly exceptional response."
God is ABLE.
