Grants are not accepted by the University until they conform to academic rules, said M. Judah Folkman, professor of anatomy and cellular biology, who has received $300,000 to $600,000 a year since 1974 from a group of chemical companies...
...born to be a CEO; he loves french cuffs, limousines, bodyguards, and telexes. He affixes the title "Mir" before his name, which is roughly equivalent to "Prince", and signifies that he is a descendent of the Prophet Mohammed.
