@benleis @johncarlosbaez She stayed, in part, for the staff discount on tuition for her daughter, who as a Penn rower won two Olympic Gold Medals, completed her Bacheror's and Masters degrees in Sociology, and went on to become an internationally recognized #rowing coach.

Also, as a cancer survivor, I surmise that access to Penn's group health insurance figured in to her decision. After surgery and treatment, you need to get yearly scans for its possible return.

@Adirondack - that's extremely interesting. How do you know that stuf! I can see websites confirming that Susan Francia is Katalin Karikó's mother, but not that her mother kept that job for the staff discount on tuition.

I recall her mentioning it in an early interview. These links have been buried in the latest news, it seems. Will share when I find it.
