Northwestern State University Movie Night with Preprofessional students

March 17, 2016, Carolyn and I met with 30-40 students and watched the 1951 movie People Will Talk. The movie illustrates many principles of Patient-Centered Medical Home.

The following link explains some of what we discussed.

Comments to Long Purple line Induction Ceremony James L. Holly, MD
March 18, 2016

In 2012, when I received the Distinguished Alumnus Award from my School of Medicine in San Antonio, I thought there was no secular award I would treasure so greatly. In January, when Dr. Henderson called to notify me that I would be inducted into the Long Purple Line, I was overwhelmed with gratitude and deeply moved, and I was very proud.

• 98 years ago, in 1918, before I was born, my paternal grandmother, Mrs. Ilda Garnett Simpson Holly, whom I adored, received a two-year teachers certificate from Northwestern Normal.

• 66 years ago, in 1950, as a six-year-old, I was enrolled in the second grade at the Laboratory School on the campus of Northwestern State College.

• 61 years ago, in 1955, as an eleven-year-old, I attended my first symphony concert in the Fine Arts Auditorium at NSC. Dr. Joseph Carlucci was the conductor. In 1976, I attended my first concert in Beaumont, Texas; the conductor was Joseph Carlucci.

• 60 years ago, In 1956, as a twelve-year-old, I started the eighth grade at Natchitoches High School which is on the NSC campus.

• 58 years ago, in 1958, as a fourteen-year-old, I entered the regional science fair on the NSC campus. The awards ceremony was held in the NSC Fine Arts Auditorium.

• 57 years ago, in 1959, as a 15-year-old, I began running cross country and track for Natchitoches High School on the NSC campus and track.

• 55 years ago, in 1960, as a 16-year-old, I watched Jackie Smith, a member of the NFL Hall of Fame and of the NSU Long Purple Line, practice the high hurdles at NSC.

• 53 years ago, in 1962, as an eighteen year old, I started my sophomore year at NSC, where, in a speech class, I met my future wife.

• 52 years ago, in 1963, the soon to be Mrs. Carolyn Bellue Holly, became a Purple Jacket, the oldest honor and service organization at NSC.

• 51 years ago, in 1965, as a twenty-one-year old, my soon to be bride, and I graduated from NSC.

The connection between Carolyn and Larry Holly and Northwestern State University is deep and long, and now, for both of us, it is Purple.

Thank you for this honor. Carolyn and I will treasure it always, and we will take every opportunity to serve and to support Northwestern Statue University, our alma mater, of which we are extremely proud.
