NASA Head Enjoys Space Shuttle Designing, D&D

A press release announces Bush’s pick to head NASA. Michael D. Griffith “received a bachelor’s degree in Physics from Johns Hopkins University; a master’s degree in Aerospace Science from Catholic University of America; a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Maryland; a master’s degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Southern California; a master’s degree in Applied Physics from Johns Hopkins University; a master’s degree in Business Administration from Loyola College; and a master’s degree in Civil Engineering from The George Washington University.” Yes, that’s a B.A., a Ph. D., and five M.A.s.

An operative offered a shorter version of the story: “Bush Nominates Virgin.”
