9.15 - Susan Allen (2311 words) |
 | Criticisms that were leveled at Dean Allen during her time at MIT most often showed an incomplete understanding of the complexity of issues that impact upon student life at the Institute. |
 | Indeed, Dean Allen is one of the few administrators who has the vision and sensitivity to truly foster campus community and student empowerment; her work has been dedicated to students and their needs through education, understanding, and respect. |
 | Not only has Dean Allen accomplished positive change by creating new structures of support and recourse for students, she has also consistently brought issues and concerns of diversity and fairness to these efforts from the training of mediators, to the development of the mediation program in general, to the consideration of judicial and disciplinary problems. |

 | Milk thistle (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn.) seeds contain several compounds that are produced from the coupling of a flavonoid and a lignan (flavonolignans). |
 | Milk Thistle medicines are generally prepared from the seeds, which can vary substantially in color from milky white to nearly fl as they develop towards maturity. |
 | Milk Thistle seeds were separated into color gradients from the lightest to the darkest in color, and analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography. |
