Some Tulane students have been accepted here at Penn
and we have picked up 2 post-docs who would've been there.

I know second-hand that Mike Mislove and James (aka Ben) Worrell got away
safely.

I=92ve just had an email from Mike Mislove, editor of Electronic Notes
=20=
in Theoretical Computer Science. He is usually based in New Orleans =20
at Tulane University, but is currently safe in Memphis having =20
evacuated before the hurricane hit land. Apparently it will be some =20
time before Tulane will be back to normal - daily updates on the =20
situation can be found on a special website.
As a result of the recent devastation, the usual Tulane mail servers =20
are not working. If you wish to contact Mike, please use his gmail =20
account.

I recently heard from Chris Leonard at Elsevier -- where Mike Mislove
is editor-in-chief of Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science
-- that Mike got out before the hurricane hit, is safe in Memphis, and
can be reached at michael.mislove@gmail.com. I don't know anything
about anybody else at Tulane.

I know that Mike Mislove and Karl Hofmann safely rellocated themselves
before the hurricane. Because Mike didn't mention, I assume that all
other colleagues are safe, but I don't really know.

mike mislove is in a hotel in memphis, tn. they evacuated before the
hurricane, but times are difficult. we hope that he and his family will
visit palo alto as soon as the circumstances allow.
ben worrell was in canada, scheduled to return to new orleans on the
morning of katrina. he was to start at oxford soon, so i hope that he is
now in UK.
i have no idea about the others.
