In Memoriam
Margaret Plummer (1925-1998)
Despite her deep fear of snakes and other crawly things that little
boys often bring home, my mother enthusiastically encouraged me as I developed
from boy herpetologist to professional scientist. Her belief in and
long-term support of student-involved research at Harding University is
remembered in the Margaret
M. Plummer Memorial Research Fund, which provides small grants
to support biology research in which undergraduate students play a major role.
To this dear and wise lady I owe, to a large extent,
whatever measure of professional success I enjoy today. I miss her.
