Dr. Maureen Robertson passed in July, and since then I've been working with the UIowa Literary Translation Program on her legacy.

I'm happy to announce the Maureen Robertson Fund and its first event, the first Weissbort-Spivak lecture, by Dr. Gayatri Spivak, this Oct 12.

Just going to say that Oberlin and Vanderbilt throwing a fit about moving down is revealing given that Grinnell moved UP four slots, and is no less elite. That's what holding onto need-blind admissions will get you.
