BENEDICTION The Chaplain RECESSIONAL Commencement Notes The most significant day in the American national calendar, the Fourth of July, was chosen by the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania for the Com- mencement exercises of 1783 so that on the seventh anniversary "of declared Inde- pendence, the wreath of Science should be conferred on the deserving." While the bells of every church in the city pealed outside, and the harbor was decorated with the colors of friendly nations belonging to the ships in the port, graduation took place in the then College building on Fourth Street. The prin- cipals in the ceremony moved in procession from the apparatus chamber to the great hall. There the "deserving"—eleven Bachelors of Arts, four Bachelors of Medicine, eight Masters of Arts, one Doctor of Medicine (ad eundem), and two Doctors of Divinity—received the honors of the first educational institution in the United States to bear the title of University. Another degree was conferred, but in absentia, a Doctorate of Laws awarded to His Excellency General George Washington, Esquire, Commander in Chief of the Army of the United States. This great moment in the program was preceded by student orations, several of which touched on "the democratic form of govern- ment," on patriotism and the generosity of France towards the United States (the French Minister was, happily, in the audience), and by a forensic disputation on duelling, an occasional practice of the students and a cause of grave concern to the faculty. General Washington, who had attended the University's Commencement the year before, and would receive his diploma privately five months later, could not be present on July 4, 1783, but the audience heard the stirring words of the degree citation. In the accolade, the trustees and faculty spoke of the arduous struggle for "peace, liberty, and safety," with which the welfare of the arts and sciences was intimately concerned; they trembled at the dangers that surrounded them—they crowded to your standard for safety—and in you they have found an illustrious protector. Sensible of her obligations—and ambitious of inrolling your justly celebrated name in the catalogue of her sons, this uni- versity presents your excellency with her highest honours. Graduates of the Class of 1983 may not realize that the Master of Arts degree of two centuries ago was not earned; it was bestowed upon graduates of three years' standing who were judged worthy and paid a fee. This ancient custom, inherited from English academic practice, was to continue for exactly a century. The Com- mencement of 1883, of which the ceremony today represents the centenary, wit- nessed, for the last time, the award of (again, exactly eight) such degrees. The facilities of the new West Philadelphia campus could not accommodate a graduation ceremony in 1883, and, in the pattern of the time, the two exercises— the first in April for the Medical and Dental Departments, the second in June for arts, medical, legal and honorary candidates—, were held at the Academy of Music where the Germania Orchestra provided the lively and brassy sound effects then so popular. The student body had grown, and diversified, in the intervening century. The recipients of the M.D. degree in April numbered 99, 59 of them, to be sure, Penn- sylvanians, but with citizens of Brazil and the Caribbean islands of Cuba and Bar- bados among them. The 34 graduating dentists included a Colombian, a German, a Puerto Rican and a Norwegian. At the June ceremony, the Bachelors of Laws had the largest representation (51 degree candidates, including Messrs Ballard, Gest and Price, all to be prominently associated with the subsequent development of their School and University). With them were 45 collegians, who received the Bachelors degree, together with 20 recipients of certificates of proficiency, two medical graduates, and three professional men who secured honorary degrees. Among the College candidates was William Adger, the first black to receive an Arts degree from Pennsylvania, and Edward Potts Cheyney, the future historian of the University. Five women were in the academic procession, four of them taking certificates in Music; the fifth, Mrs. Carrie Burnham Kilgore, was the first woman to receive the LL.B. of the University. The struggle of Carrie Kilgore for a law degree in 1883 has been marked in 1983 by a significant anniversary exhibition in the Law School. In 1933, University honors were awarded at the Midyear Convocation in Feb- ruary and at the June Commencement; then, in November, diploma exercises were held for the Hospital Training School for Nurses. At Convocation, the degrees received by the 345 candidates (150 of them graduate students) included many which had been added to the academic cornucopia during the intervening half cen- tury: the Master of Business Administration, the M.S. in Education and the same degree in Electrical Engineering, the Bachelor and Master of Architecture, the Master of Medical Science, and the doctorate in Philosophy—one of whose proud recipients was blind. R.O.T.C. commissions were awarded. At the June, 1933 Commencement, held then, as today, in Convention Hall, Arts, Medical, and Dental seniors received diplomas, and certificates went to candi- dates from the Evening School of Accounts and Finance, another educational opportunity developed in the twentieth century.

  • Philosophy Reviewed
    Unpublished Reviews Philosophy Reviewed Wednesday, July 11, 2018 Minds and Machines on Causality and the Brain June 2018, Volume 28, Issue 2, This volume of Minds and Machines is the product of a conference, which seems largely to have determined the contributions. Although purportedly about science, the essays are often principally directed at those philosophers of science who do not understand the banalities of the sciences they write about or are interested in. (Scientists tend to like this kind of stuff, because it is people saying what the scientists know or think. Everyone likes cheerleading.) Only one of the essays, Romeijin and Williamson's, makes any contribution a brain scientist could conceivably use. Romeijin and Williamson, Intervention and Identification in Latent Variable Modeling The authors actually do something. They show that if X, Y, L are binary, and L is the common cause of X, Y, and X, Y are measured and L is unmeasured and there and there are no other causal relations between X and Y, then an exogenous perturbation of the distribution of L allows identification of p(X | L) and p(Y | L) (and of course, p(X,Y | L) for all values of L, without knowledge of the distributions of L before and after perturbation except that the distributions are different. Of course, it isn't true if the relation between X, Y and L is linear, or if besides the common cause, X influences Y, or if L has more than two values, etc. The authors give no empirical example that realizes their result.

    MODELING AND ANALYSIS OF MOBILE TELEPHONY PROTOCOLS by Chunyu Tang A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the Stevens Institute of Technology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chunyu Tang, Candidate ADVISORY COMMITTEE David A. Naumann, Chairman Date Yingying Chen Date Daniel Duchamp Date Susanne Wetzel Date STEVENS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Castle Point on Hudson Hoboken, NJ 07030 2013 c 2013, Chunyu Tang. All rights reserved. iii MODELING AND ANALYSIS OF MOBILE TELEPHONY PROTOCOLS ABSTRACT The GSM (2G), UMTS (3G), and LTE (4G) mobile telephony protocols are all in active use, giving rise to a number of interoperation situations. This poses serious challenges in ensuring authentication and other security properties. Analyzing the security of all possible interoperation scenarios by hand is, at best, tedious under- taking. Model checking techniques provide an effective way to automatically find vulnerabilities in or to prove the security properties of security protocols. Although the specifications address the interoperation cases between GSM and UMTS and the switching and mapping of established security context between LTE and previous technologies, there is not a comprehensive specification of which are the possible interoperation cases. Nor is there comprehensive specification of the procedures to establish security context (authentication and short-term keys) in the various interoperation scenarios. We systematically enumerate the cases, classifying them as allowed, disallowed, or uncertain with rationale based on detailed analysis of the specifications. We identify the authentication and key agreement procedure for each of the possible cases. We formally model the pure GSM, UMTS, LTE authentication protocols, as well as all the interoperation scenarios; we analyze their security, in the symbolic model of cryptography, using the tool ProVerif.

    Multiparty Selection Ke Chen Department of Computer Science, University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, WI, USA [email protected] Adrian Dumitrescu Department of Computer Science, University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, WI, USA [email protected] Abstract Given a sequence A of n numbers and an integer (target) parameter 1 ≤ i ≤ n, the (exact) selection problem is that of finding the i-th smallest element in A. An element is said to be (i, j)-mediocre if it is neither among the top i nor among the bottom j elements of S. The approximate selection problem is that of finding an (i, j)-mediocre element for some given i, j; as such, this variant allows the algorithm to return any element in a prescribed range. In the first part, we revisit the selection problem in the two-party model introduced by Andrew Yao (1979) and then extend our study of exact selection to the multiparty model. In the second part, we deduce some communication complexity benefits that arise in approximate selection. In particular, we present a deterministic protocol for finding an approximate median among k players. 2012 ACM Subject Classification Theory of computation Keywords and phrases approximate selection, mediocre element, comparison algorithm, i-th order statistic, tournaments, quantiles, communication complexity Digital Object Identifier 10.4230/LIPIcs.ISAAC.2020.42 1 Introduction Given a sequence A of n numbers and an integer (selection) parameter 1 ≤ i ≤ n, the selection problem asks to find the i-th smallest element in A. If the n elements are distinct, the i-th smallest is larger than i − 1 elements of A and smaller than the other n − i elements of A.

    ANNUAL REPORT – INTRODUCTION Dear Bruins, Our department enjoyed an exciting and memorable year both on and off the field of competition in 2016- 17. Ten of our athletic teams finished among the Top 10, nationally. Of even greater significance, 126 of our student-athletes earned their degrees from this university in June and officially embarked upon the next chapter of their lives. Throughout the 2016-17 academic year, student- athletes earned Director’s Honor Roll accolades (3.0 GPA or higher) more than 980 times. In addition, our Graduation Success Rate (GSR) and Academic Progress Report (APR) numbers remained high across the board and among the best in the nation. UCLA’s overall GSR of 86% stands two percentage points higher than the national average of 84%. Our football team compiled the second-highest GSR among Pac-12 schools with 88% (the national average for FBS schools is 74%). In addition, six of our teams – men’s water polo, women’s basketball, women’s golf, softball, women’s tennis and women’s volleyball – had a GSR of 100 percent. Sixteen of our 20 sports programs had a GSR of 80 percent or higher. I’ve said it before and I’ll say As a department, we always pride ourselves on team practice facilities for our football, men’s basketball it again – our student-athletes not only meet these accomplishments, but it’s absolutely worth noting and women’s basketball teams, and I know that the expectations, but they almost always exceed them. It’s several outstanding individual efforts by our hard- coaches and student-athletes of these teams are a testament to their work ethic and to the support they working student-athletes.
