The meeting included 12 special workshops, an evening public science lecture, and a number of science high- lights. The future of the ALS includes the renewal and expansion of our techni- cal capabilities and scientific goals as well as our physical environment. We are making progress on plans for a new user support building and a guest house.

The creation of the police force, known as GCC-POL, was announced yesterday at the conclusion of the Gulf bloc’s annual summit in Qatar. Local media have dubbed it the “Gulf Interpol” and say its aim is to improve cooperation against drug trafficking, money laundering and cyber-crime. The GCC is comprised of the energy-rich nations of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman. Supporting Sisi’s Egypt Meanwhile, Qatar joined its neighbors at a summit yesterday in supporting Egypt under President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, whose crackdown on the Doha-backed Muslim Brotherhood had divided the Gulf monarchies for months. In their final statement, leaders of the six- nation Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states announced their “full support to Egypt” and the “politi- cal program of President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi”. Convening the Doha summit, which had been short- ened to one day, was made possible only by last-minute Kuwaiti mediation that succeeded in resolving a dispute between Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain with Qatar over the Brotherhood.

Rieser ’44 Provost and Dean of the Faculty Emeritus An Interview Conducted by Jane Carroll Hanover, NH August 15 and 28, and October 22, 1996 Phonotape Nos. 1176 R547/1–5 Special Collections Dartmouth College Hanover, New Hampshire Leonard Rieser Interview INTERVIEW: Leonard Rieser INTERVIEWED BY: Jane Carroll PLACE: Leonard Rieser’s office Hanover, NH DATE: August 16, 1996 CARROLL: Today is the 16th of August 1996, and I’m speaking with former Provost and Dean of the Faculty Leonard Rieser here in his office in Hanover, New Hampshire. I was curious when you first came to Dartmouth. That was 1940? RIESER: As an undergraduate. CARROLL: As an undergraduate. How did you choose Dartmouth? RIESER: Your question’s very perceptive, as you’ll see from your answer. It was certainly my intention to go to Harvard, and my family’s intention; and as late as July of 1940 I was sitting at the camp where I was a counselor, talking to a friend with whom I planned to room in freshman dorms. We were picking a room. And I had a phone call from my home that a telegram had come saying something about “Harvard is sorry, but your score on your recent English exam meant that you would have to wait a year to come to Harvard.” That set in motion a search for an alternative. In retrospect, I’m surprised that I wasn’t more discouraged by that, or depressed, but it’s because I really hadn’t thought much about alternatives. I may have, earlier, applied to Reed College, I don’t remember, or whether I did it then.

  • Ernest Fox Nichols
    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES E R N E S T F O X N ICHOLS 1869—1924 A Biographical Memoir by E . L . NICHOLS Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1929 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. ERNEST FOX NICHOLS BY R. L. NICHOLS One winter evening in the year 1885 the present writer lec- tured at the Kansas Agricultural College. It was an illustrated talk on experimental physics to students who thronged the col- lege chapel. Some three years later, when that event had passed into the realm of things half forgotten, two young men appeared at the physical laboratory of Cornell University. They ex- plained that they had been in the audience at Manhattan on the occasion just mentioned and had been so strongly interested that they had decided then and there to devote themselves to the study of physics. Now, having finished their undergrad- uate course they had come east to enter our graduate school. One of these two Kansas boys, both of whom were then quite unknown to the writer, was Ernest Fox Nichols. Nichols was born in Leavenworth, Kansas, on June 1. 1869. He was soon left parentless, a lonely boy but with means to help him obtain an education, and went to live with an uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Fox, of Manhattan, in that State. He was tall, fair, clear-eyed, of open countenance and winning smile, and there was that about him which once seen was never forgotten.

  • American Folklife Center & Veterans History Project Annual Report for FY2008
    AMERICAN FOLKLIFE CENTER & VETERANS HISTORY PROJECT Library of Congress Annual Report, Fiscal Year 2008 (October 2007-September 2008) The American Folklife Center (AFC), which includes the Veterans History Project (VHP), had another productive year. Over a quarter million items were acquired by the AFC Archive, which is the country’s first national archive of traditional life, and one of the oldest and largest of such repositories in the world. About 240,000 items were processed, and thus made available to researchers at the Library and beyond. In addition, the Center continued to expand programming through symposia, concerts, and public lectures; by providing field school training to universities and international organizations; and by providing technical assistance to individuals and groups. AFC also continued to be a leader in international discussions concerning traditional culture and intellectual property, and the AFC director served as a member of US delegations to meetings convened by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), UNESCO, and the Organization of American States (OAS). Both AFC and VHP provided substantial services to Congress. The Veterans History Project (VHP) continued making major strides in its mission to collect and preserve the stories of our nation's veterans, receiving upwards of 100 collections a week and acquiring over 22,000 items. The maturation of the Project was reflected by its partnership with WETA-TV and PBS in their presentation of the Ken Burns film, The War, which told the story of World War II through the memories of individual veterans from four American towns.
