Black Star magazine provides a new platform for minority voices to be heard on campus. The publication's staff has several issues to its credit to date, and has distributed copies around Atlanta college campuses. "Emory's minority population is exploding, and it's more important now than ever to have a place for different voices to express ideas," says editor-in-chief Ian McCall 11C.

For patients and their families, Emory's ALS Center provides multidisciplinary care, focusing on independence and quality of life. Together, Emory neurologists, nurses, dieticians, physical therapists and other experts help patients address all stages of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. "It hits people smack in the middle of their productive lives, and it affects not only the individual but the whole family," says center director Jonathan Glass. The Morrell family is pulling together to help Shirley (far right) fight the disease.

Emory saved Ada Lee and Pete Correll’s lives, and they have invested their time, talent and money to express their gratitude. “Corny, but true,” says Ada Lee Correll, who more than a decade ago had emergency triple-bypass surgery after an abnormal cardiogram. Eight years later, a heart attack  brought Pete Correll to Emory.

Among the Corrells’ many contributions to Emory School of Medicine, they chaired the drive to fund the new medical school building. Ada Lee Correll now leads the school’s campaign to raise $500 million for research, scholarships, teaching and programs.
