Norris Sad news indeed. There are others who knew her better than I and can report aspects of her career. I, however, cannot forget that great moment not so long ago, when she stood up at an FDP meeting after some Federal Agency announced they had a great new proposal submission system. She stated in no uncertain terms, “we do not want any more new rogue grants systems!" That became a rallying cry for the FDP. One of her many legacies.

Norris Julie, Freely, gave back to the research administration profession by sharing her knowledge and expertise with the research community. She was out ahead of the curve on most issues. I recall Julie and Barbara Yoder agreeing to come to a SRA TX Chapter meeting to share their expertise on export controls, back in the day when most of us barely knew about such things.
