  <body><![CDATA[<p>Assistant Professor <strong>Shabbir Ahmed</strong> has been awarded a Career  Award from the National Science Foundation. Dr. Ahmed's interests include stochastic programming and computational optimization with applications in facility location, network design, capacity planning, and finance. 
</p>
<p>Congratulations to Administrative Coordinator <strong>Jennifer Harris</strong>, who is celebrating ten years of service to Georgia Tech.
</p>
<p>Professor <strong>Craig Tovey</strong>, working with Dr. Ivan Chase from the Stony Brook University, has published "Individual Differences versus Social  Dynamics in the Formation of Animal Dominance Hierarchies," which appears in the April 16th, 2002, issue of <em>Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences</em>. Their research shows that biological facts do not rule the social lives of animals even as "simple" as fish; group dynamics play a major role.</p>]]></body>

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
