Senator Dodd, I don’t know how I can thank you for that introduction, which is probably the best I’ve ever had. I shouldn’t be surprised, I suppose, since it came from a senator of the United States. I am touched. Also, ladies and gentlemen, I’m upset that you applaud me as I rise, since I fear that you won’t when I subside. However, if we can get past that, I have to say that this is something for which I feel more honored than anything that’s happened in my life. I am also more daunted. It’s the biggest audience, it’s the most distinguished audience, as I can see just by a rapid glance around, and it’s in the nation’s capital. Also, this is in fact a very inopportune time for me to try to give a lecture like this, because I’ve spent the last five months in Los Angeles, and now I haven’t the slightest idea what I think about anything.

  • The Architecture of Jewish Student Centers on American University Campuses
    arts Article Situational Ecumenism: The Architecture of Jewish Student Centers on American University Campuses Jeremy Kargon School of Architecture & Planning, Morgan State University, Baltimore, MD 21251, USA; [email protected] Received: 28 June 2019; Accepted: 18 August 2019; Published: 23 August 2019 Abstract: Since the start of the 20th century, the presence of Jewish students on American university campuses required accommodation of their religious practices. Jewish activities, including prayer, took place in existing campus buildings designed for other purposes. Eventually, at some universities, facilities were built to serve Jewish religious and social needs. These Jewish Student Centers, which include worship spaces yet are typologically different from synagogues, generally have to accommodate the diverse religious streams that characterize Jewish life in the United States. To do so, both architects and Jewish organizations have adapted the idea of ecumenism, by which related sects seek unity through fellowship and dialogue, not doctrinal agreement. Three examples—at Yale, Duke University, and the University of California San Diego—demonstrate differently the situational ecumenism at the core of their designs. These buildings, and other Jewish Student Centers elsewhere, make visible the intersection between American collegiate and Jewish religious values, variously defined. Keywords: Jews; architecture; college; university; student center 1. Introduction As universities in the United States sought to bolster their research mission in the late 19th century, schools founded by religious sects shifted their undergraduate emphasis towards secular education (Geiger 2015; Veysey 1970). Doing so attracted students from backgrounds that reflected the changing demographics of an immigrant society. Universities such as Harvard and Yale—established in colonial times to educate ministers for Congregationalist New England—now had to educate Catholics, Baptists, and Jews seeking to enter academic and professional ranks (Coe and Davidson 2001, p.

No one has thought Pop better.” —Harry Cooper, National Gallery of Art new The First Pop Age Painting and Subjectivity in the Art of Hamilton, Lichtenstein, Warhol, Richter, and Ruscha Hal Foster Who branded painting in the Pop age more brazenly than Richard Hamilton, Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, Gerhard Richter, and Ed Ruscha?
