    Indoor Environmental Quality + Classroom Environment UMTC John T. Tate Hall (Tate Hall) Renovation Minneapolis, MN April 2019, Minneapolis, MN Sustainable Post-Occupancy Evaluation Survey (SPOES) B3 Guidelines Caren S. Martin, PhD Abimbola Asojo, PhD (contact: [email protected]) ([email protected]) Martin & Guerin Design Research, LLC Suyeon Bae, PhD Minneapolis, MN College of Design University of Minnesota 1.0 Overview The purpose of this report is to examine the connection between sustainable design criteria used in the design of the UMTC John T. Tate Hall (Tate Hall) facility and occupants’ satisfaction with their classroom environments located in this building. The Tate Hall facility renovation was designed using the 2009 B3 Guidelines (formerly known as the Minnesota Sustainable Building Guidelines or MSBG), which were in effect at the time that the new facility was completed for occupancy in August 2017. The B3 Guidelines track specific state-funded, B3 buildings as a means of demonstrating real outcomes aimed at the conservation of energy resources, creation and maintenance of healthy environments, and occupants’ satisfaction with their environments. The Sustainable Post-Occupancy Evaluation Survey (SPOES) was developed to assess human outcomes in workplace, classroom, and residence hall settings in compliance with the B3 Guidelines project tracking requirements. This is a report of occupants’ (hereafter called students) responses at 14 months post-occupancy. The survey was conducted in late-October through early-November 2018. This SPOES report focuses on students’ satisfaction with the physical environment as related to 23 indoor environmental quality (IEQ) criteria such as lighting, thermal, and acoustic conditions in their primary classrooms.

  • Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press 2021
    Jan 21 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) did not gather in New York to celebrate the Great Detective’s 167th birthday this year, but the somewhat shorter long weekend offered plenty of events, thanks to Zoom and other modern technol- ogy. Detailed reports will be available soon at the web-site of The Baker Street Irregulars <www.bakerstreetirregulars.com>, but here are few brief paragraphs to tide you over: The BSI’s Distinguished Speaker on Thursday was Andrew Lycett, the author of two fine books about Conan Doyle; his topic was “Conan Doyle’s Questing World” (and close to 400 people were able to attend the virtual lecture); the event also included the announcement by Steve Rothman, editor of the Baker Street Journal, of the winner of the Morley-Montgomery Award for the best article the BSJ last year: Jessica Schilling (for her “Just His Type: An Analysis of the Découpé Warning in The Hound of the Baskervilles”). Irregulars and guests gathered on Friday for the BSI’s annual dinner, with Andrew Joffe offering the traditional first toast to Nina Singleton as The Woman, and the program continued with the usual toasts, rituals, and pap- ers; this year the toast to Mrs. Hudson was delivered by the lady herself, splendidly impersonated by Denny Dobry from his recreation of the sitting- room at 221B Baker Street. Mike Kean (the “Wiggins” of the BSI) presented the Birthday Honours (Irregular Shillings and Investitures) to Dan Andri- acco (St. Saviour’s Near King’s Cross), Deborah Clark (Mrs. Cecil Forres- ter), Carla Coupe (London Bridge), Ann Margaret Lewis (The Polyphonic Mo- tets of Lassus), Steve Mason (The Fortescue Scholarship), Ashley Polasek (Singlestick), Svend Ranild (A “Copenhagen” Label), Ray Riethmeier (Mor- rison, Morrison, and Dodd), Alan Rettig (The Red Lamp), and Tracy Revels (A Black Sequin-Covered Dinner-Dress).

  • The Shaw One Hundred
    The Basic Holmesian Library A Catalog by Timothy J. Johnson In conjunction with an exhibit based on John Bennett Shaw's list of One Hundred and a conference sponsored by The Norwegian Explorers of Minnesota Elmer L. Andersen Library Special Collections & Rare Books University of Minnesota Libraries June — July 2001 Minneapolis 2001 Introduction to the Exhibit “Some years ago I staged an exhibition of what I then considered to be the One Hundred Basic Books, pamphlets and periodicals relating to Sherlock Holmes.” So wrote John Bennett Shaw in a short introduction to his first official compilation of these books, pamphlets and periodicals, which he titled “The Basic Holmesian Library”. His goal was to give “an in-depth view of the entire Holmesian culture,” and while he admitted the difficulty encountered in choosing what to include out of so many fine writings, he approached this daunting task with the enthusiasm of one who truly understood the meaning of Collecting Sherlockiana. His own library, which he defined in his essay “Collecting Sherlockiana” as “…a number of books and other printed material on one subject, or on several,” focused on Sherlock Holmes. An avid bibliophile, he narrowed his collecting to this one subject after donating his other collections to such universities as Notre Dame, Tulsa, and the University of New Mexico. It is perhaps ironic to use the term narrowed for such a collection, which grew to over 15, 000 items. As his own library expanded with acquisitions of previously printed as well as newly published items, he revised his list of the Basic Holmesian Library.

  • The Wicked Beginnings of a Baker Street Classic!
    The Wicked Beginnings of a Baker Street Classic! by Ray Betzner From The Baker Street Journal Vol. 57, No. 1 (Spring 2007), pp. 18 - 27. www.BakerStreetJournal.com The Baker Street Journal continues to be the leading Sherlockian publication since its founding in 1946 by Edgar W. Smith. With both serious scholarship and articles that “play the game,” the Journal is essential reading for anyone interested in Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and a world where it is always 1895. www.BakerStreetJournal.com THE WICKED BEGINNINGS OF A BAKER STREET CLASSIC! by RAY BETZNER In the early 1930s, when pulps were the guilty pleasures of the American maga- zine business, Real Detective was just another bedsheet promising sex, sin, and sensationalism for a mere two bits. With a color cover that featured a sultry moll, a gun-toting cop, or a sneering mobster, it assured the reader that when he got the magazine back to his garage or basement, he would be entertained by the kind of delights not found in The Bookman or The Atlantic Monthly. And yet, for a moment in December 1932, a single article featuring the world’s first consulting detective elevated the standards of Real Detective to something approaching respectability. Starting on page 50, between “Manhattan News Flash” (featuring the kidnapping of little John Arthur Russell) and “Rah! Rah! Rah! Rotgut and Rotters of the ’32 Campus” (by Densmore Dugan ’33) is a three-quarter-page illustration by Frederic Dorr Steele showing Sherlock Holmes in his dressing gown, standing beneath the headline: “Mr. Holmes of Baker Street: The Discovery of the Great Detective’s Home in London.” Com- pared with “I am a ‘Slave!’ The Tragic Confession of a Girl who ‘Went Wrong,’” the revelations behind an actual identification for 221B seems posi- tively quaint.
