This seems like an advertorial for U. of A which is a fine institution. I guess I would ask why the students had to do all the leg work? I am a prof at a very large research institution and it has been my experience that the trifecta of top notch researcher, first tier teacher, and cherished mentor is akin to my retriever winning the Triple Crown of horse racing. Maybe institutions should hire people with 2 out of 3 every once in a while.....
