Here's a brief list of attributes to look for in leaders: -Belief in science. -Willingness to ask, again and again, "How might I be wrong?" and change mind when necessary. -Love, compassion and emotion over fear, fake-toughness, and machismo. -Defer to experts. -Kindness.

Wake up to read @bennyflanagan is the @NCAATrackField 10000m champion!! WOW WOW WOW. Couldn't happen to a nicer kid. Not sure I've met a better young leader, one who leads through listening and asking questions and putting others first, in all my years hanging around campus.

What's rarer: treadmills that can go 3:59 per mile, or athletes who can go 3:59 per mile? #MiPRlab #VeryNiceTC
