SED staffer receives award from retired
police officers association
Margaret Sullivan, SED graduate admissions manager, received the Retired
Boston Police Officers Association's St. Michael's Award on September
16 for helping to discover the names of the first Boston police officers
to die in the line of duty. Sullivan uncovered the records concerning
the forgotten heroes while researching photos of Boston officers missing
from the national police memorial. Former officers Jonathon Houghton and
David Estes were both members of Night Watch, the precursor of the modern
police department. Houghton was killed on December 11, 1825, and Estes
on April 27, 1848. The slain officers' names have been added to the National
Law Enforcement Officers Memorial and will be added to the Massachusetts
Law Enforcement Memorial. Sullivan is now trying to find the officers'
descendants.

Suzanne Topalian (CAS'03) was one of only nine students in a national competition to be awarded an undergraduate summer fellowship this year from the American Association of Physicists in Medicine program. She worked at Children's Hospital in Los Angeles, one of the two hospitals in the United States that provide radiation treatment exclusively for children with cancer. The daughter of a breast cancer survivor, Topalian was able to study further the technology that successfully targets malignant tumor cells while sparing nearby normal organs, thus reducing the disabling complications of treatment.
