Greetings from the Graduate Elite!!!
One can most assuredly describe us as a very merry group as evident from the picture above. (At least that is, when we aren't put in charge of an undergraduate physics lab!!!) As residents of Webster, Brotherhood of Room 332, we have all formed a very special bond over the many hours of interaction within those tight confines. After our second year of course work, the Physics Department will be authorized to add padding to the walls, since our path to insanity will be complete!

All graduate students are screened for the genetic traits that will indicate a likelihood of insanity... these are the only persons brave enough to consider such an undertaking along with the likelihood for success. Above we see Curtis; after a hard day in the undergraduate labs he often finds in necessary to retreat into the familiar confines of room 332 whereupon he completely disrobes. During any full moon, Curtis can be found running through the streets Pullman, preaching the Postulates of Quantum Mechanics, vacant of cloths. Also detailed above, is Dr. Wei Wei, sister in the class, and expert in Chinese Martial Arts. Observe her very special technique, the flying four finger praying mantis death grip, for which she demonstrates. (Group Hug!)

(But to fool you not) We do manage (some how) to not only get some work done but also achieve the impossible (like finishing our assigned problem sets)! I'm seen working diligently in the computer lab where I'm utilizing cutting-edge mathematical software! Three questionable figures are attempting to arrive at a solution for their optics assignment. Hey, miracles can happen. (Partial Credit!)

Once inducted into the Brotherhood (of Room 332) one can never escape. We see Miss Wei, sister in class, spends her evening napping on one of the two full size couches in 332. The Brotherhood has equipt themselves with a full size frig, microwave, television, two VCRs (for recording purposes), desk lamps, and a plethora of overhead lighting! The purchase date for the pool table is still pending...

With over 1200 red lights, the office really does taking on a life of its own. Kinda reminds one of Hell??? Note: Professors of WSU, please disreguard that last statement. Thank you for your understanding. Goodbye now.

Dudley

Lab Instructor for Physics 101, Professional Chemist, Fellow Brother in the Class with Paul, World Traveler, He who has "walked the earth", Auto-mechanic, Regular at Ricos, Avid Painter, and Connoisseur of Great Whiskey.

Paul

Electro-Optics Research Assistant, Fellow Brother in the Class with Dudley, Family-Man, Brewer of Great Elixirs, Slammer of Keys, Author of Questionable Verse and Water Inspector for Webster, Physical Science Building! Paul is also the Voice of Reason for the Graduate Group!

Wei

Lab Instructor for Physics 201, Doctor of Physics in Acoustics, Expert in the Processes of Chinese Cuisine, Afficionado of the "Love Story", and Virtuoso in the Chinese Martial Arts. (BTW: Her mailing address has recently been changed to Webster - Room 332, Pullman, WA 99163.)

Jeff

Lab Instructor for Physics 101, Family-Man, Professional Stunt Driver, Super-Quantum Expert, Devotee of E&M (lots of math!) and Experimenter in the Affects of the Earth's Gravitation Field on The Common Microwave Pizza. (Yes... No!)

Weiya

Lab Instructor for Physics 201, Lecture Assistant of 201, He Who Is No Ones Pinto, Martial Expert in Taiqi, Super-Super-Quantum Expert, Instigator of Laughter on Various Personas (not limited to but including Paul), Emptor of Extentive Computer Elements, and He Who Can't Stand The Bubble!

Natnael

"Natnael Embaye!", "Natnael Embaye!", "Natnael Embaye!!!!!!" Lab Instructor for 102, Lecture Assistant for 102, and Regular Participant in Chemo-Therapy. (Note: I will have to defer all other statements until I have negotiated with Natnael.) His concerns are well warranted considering deviant genius, Mr. Nuke. (Also Note: Fran Morrissey is ultimately not responsible for the words / thoughts / actions of Mr. Nuke.)

Curtis

Lab Instructor for 101, Regular Flutter with Paul, He Who Disrobes in 332, Office Mate (with the Legendary and Celebrated) Mr. Park, Mass Eater of Hot Pockets, Very Regular Traveler to Moscow, and Designated Deliverer of Park Material (a new product, distributed by the brilliant minds of WSU Physics Professors!)

Mr. Park

Lab Instructor for 202, Lecture Assistant for 202, (XXXX Information Censor!!! XXXX - upon Mr. Park's request.) (does he have an equal?), Virtuoso in Go, Mastermind in Quantum, a Feverous Grader in the Undergraduate Labs, and He Who Is Always Ready and Willing to Assist Paul and Dudley With Their Assignments - "I think you need to read the book..." Thanks Mr. Park!!! BTW: Where IS Mr. Park???

Mr. Nuke

"I must think of something first..."

My lovely office space. This hi-res picture was taken for your ultimate enjoyment. The total area presented above is the comfortable area I call home. What is in question is whether any significant work has ever been completed within this space... More study is need. Y2K Office Update! (Note: This area is sole property of WSU.)
Fran's Domain!!! The before linked picture was taken and edited by Graduate Elite, Dudley!

Sleepless in Seattle

Adventures of Three Curious Characters...

It sure seemed like Wonderland, after escaping the little village of Pullman. The following pictorial account details many escapades including bungee jumping off the Space Needle, encounters with dinosaurs, operation of a spy plane, confrontations with curious apes, and a detour which ended in a short space walk outside NASA's spacecraft.
