Thanks for the “heads up” notice re; Dr. Bhagat. I don’t have any recollections of having taken any of his classes during my time at Ole Miss but would take this opportunity to congratulate Dr. Bhagat upon his retirement and thank him for his service.

I’m now retired, having begun government service as a Special Agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms upon graduation in 1971. I was extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to complete my ATF career at Oxford, where I served as Resident Agent in Charge of that field office from 1987 to 1998.

Thanks again for making me aware of Dr. Bhagat’s retirement.
