It is fitting, then, to conclude this memorial resolution with comments from several former students of Professor Thompson. A few years after Max Brown had taken Economics 302, he wrote a letter of appreciation stressing the way that Carey's class had influenced him. The discipline which was required to make an 'A' in that course set a pattern for me for the remainder of my years at Texas. We think that all who knew Carey would agree that he ranked his ego as a poor second to his performance. Among other qualities, this one made him a very pleasant colleague, and it was a pleasure to have him with us for so long.
