Amy DeBaun
Director of Campus Life
It still happens to her, although not as
often as it used to: Amy DeBaun, the former Amy Howard, might be
walking down the Long Walk or waiting for a coffee in Funston
Café when someone will stop her. “You look very familiar,” they
might say, “but I can’t quite place you.” She will smile, wait a
moment or two to see if the person figures it out, and then
introduce herself.

What they’re reading…
Jeffrey Kaimowitz
Head Librarian, Watkinson Library
"When I was in graduate school four decades
ago, critical theory in classics was basically unheard of. I
have picked up something of structuralism, deconstruction, the
new historicism, etc. along the way, but never found myself
wanting to read in any depth about criticism. I have been much
more interested in reading the original literature. Still, I
felt a gap in education and a few years ago I bought a very
well-reviewed book by the English classicist Don Fowler,
Roman Constructions: Readings in Postmodern Latin. I bought
it, but then could not bring myself to read it. Recently,
however, I began reading it right through."

The Service of Lessons and Carols was
held for the first time in the Trinity College Chapel on
December 14, 1958. The music was performed by the Cantores
Sancti, a group of “sacred singers” under the direction of
Professor of Music Clarence Watters. The Canores Sancti
included members of the Chapel Choir along with some 20 boy
sopranos from St. John’s Church in West Hartford, where
Watters also served as organist and choral director. The
Lessons and Carols service at Trinity is based on the
service conducted at King’s College Chapel at Cambridge
University. |
