How did numerology influence different aspects of human creation? How could some numbers assume such an extraordinary meaning? Why some numbers appear so often throughout the fabric of reality? Has reality really a preference for a ternary pattern? Present excursion through the ‘life’ and ‘deeds’ of this pattern and of its parent number in different fields of human culture try to offer an answer to some of these questions giving at the same time a glance of the strange preference of the human mind for a patterned reality based on number three, which, like the 'unary' and 'dualistic' patterned reality, but in a more emphatic way, ended up assuming an archetypical character in the intellectual sphere of humanity. Introduction Three is not only the sole number that is the sum of all the natural numbers less than itself, but it lies between arguably the two most important irrational and transcendental numbers of all mathematics, i.e., e < 3 < π.

William Fulbright (1905-1995), the founder of the US government’s flag- ship international educa- tional exchange program. As a junior senator from Arkan- sas, Fulbright endorsed a pro- active internationalist agenda during and after World War II and made a name for him- self not only as an advocate of the United Nations and educational exchange pro- grams, but also as one of the most courageous opponents of Joseph McCarthy. In August 1946, Fulbright was responsible for tagging an amendment on to the Sur- plus Property Act of 1944, which stipulated that for- U.S. Fulbright grantees visiting the Melk Monastery during their orientation program in September 2005. eign income earned overseas by the sale of US wartime property could be used to finance educational Salzburg, Klagenfurt, Linz, Graz, and Vienna, as well as collaborative exchange with other countries.

    The Legacy of Leadership is Persistent with the Class having Leadership like Ron Lazar, supported by his lovely bride Lilliane and 32 other helping hands, 1953 had an 80.4% Participation tally in the 2015 Dartmouth College Fund drive, an awesome achievement. Many were involved, but leadership and persistence were motivated by our leader Ron and Lilliane, and 32 teammates that Ron has dubbed Team Terrific, helping hands that led to this extraordinary achievement to sustain the Legacy of 1953. Details of this fabulous achievement follow. Mark Smoller’s Class Notes for the Alumni Magazine in the fall. “It was not, “So long!”, but “See ya later!” at a send-off gathering for Bonnie and Dave Siegal. Thirty-three classmates and their wives and widows gathering at Kendall to wish the Siegal’s well. After many years of on the scene, service to the Class and the College, Bonnie and Dave are leaving for Tulsa, Oklahoma, and will be missed in Hanover. We look forward to seeing them as they return for various events, and wish them good luck in their new digs. Attending the Siegal’s party were Dick and Cynthia O’Connor, Clark and Linda Brink, Seth Carpenter, Liz King, Jane Springer, Russ and Marge Cook, Bill Murray, Bob and Mary Bee Longabaugh, Jack and Jody Zimmerman, Bob and Anne Simpson, Nancy and Caroline Johnson, Lillian and Holly Goss, Put and Marian Blodgett, Dave and Bonnie Siegal, Allen Collins, Chuck and Donna Reilly, Harlan Fair, Granthia Preston, Joe and Jane Stevens, and John and Barbara Kennedy.

We invite you to consider the performances on McCallum’s Field Trip Series as non-print texts available for study and investigation by your students. Anyone who has shown a filmed version of a play in their classroom, used a website as companion to a textbook, or asked students to do online research already knows that LEARNING LINKS “texts” don’t begin and end with textbooks, novels, and reading packets. They extend to videos, websites, games, plays, concerts, dances, radio programs, and a number of other non-print texts that students and teachers engage with on a regular basis. We know that when we expand our definition of texts to the variety of media that we use in our everyday lives, we broaden the materials and concepts we have at our disposal in the classroom, increase student engagement, and enrich learning experiences. Please consider how utilizing your McCallum performance as a text might align to standards established for reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language. How do we help students to use these texts as a way of shaping ideas and understanding the world? Please use this material to help you on this journey. NON-PRINT TEXT > any medium/text that creates meaning through sound or images or both, such as symbols, words, songs, speeches, pictures, and illustrations not in traditional print form including those seen on computers, films, and in the environment.

DAVID RAGSDALE, Guest Conductor • GREGORY VAJDA, Music Director One of the nation’s major aerospace hubs, Huntsville—the “Rocket City”—has been heavily invested in the industry since Operation Paperclip brought more than 1,600 German scientists to the United States between 1945 and 1959. The Army Ballistic Missile Agency arrived at Redstone Arsenal in 1956, and Eisenhower opened NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in 1960 with Dr. Wernher von Braun as Director. The Redstone and Saturn rockets, the “Moon Buggy” (Lunar Roving Vehicle), Skylab, the Space Shuttle Program, and the Hubble Space Telescope are just a few of the many projects led or assisted by Huntsville. Tonight’s concert celebrates our community’s vital contributions to rocketry and space exploration, at the most opportune of celestial conjunctions: July 2019 marked the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon-landing mission, and 2020 brings the 50th anniversary of the U.S. Space and Rocket Center, America’s leading aerospace museum and Alabama’s largest tourist attraction.

    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.
