the rope carried the New York wound.
The river and the tall gallant were joined.
A traveler stretched on a day in August.
set out to show that it was easy if you only thought so.
and swallowed hard at their hearts.
that Greater New York was the way.
The above poem is a slightly modified, redacted poem derived from Outspinning the Spider: The Story of Wire and Wire Rope by John Kimberly Mumford. Below is the original text with redaction markings. Click to expand.

Center for the Study of Language and Information[edit]
The Center for the Study of Language and Information (CSLI) is an independent research center at Stanford University. Founded in 1983 by philosophers, computer scientists, linguists, and psychologists from Stanford, SRI International, and Xerox PARC, it strives to study all forms of information and improve how humans and computers acquire and process it.
CSLI was initially funded by a US$15 million grant from the System Development Foundation (SDF) for the Situated Language Project, the name of which reflects the strong influence of the work on situation semantics by philosophers John Perry and Jon Barwise, two of the initial leaders of CSLI. This funding supported operations for the first few years as well as the construction of Cordura Hall. Subsequent funding has come from research grants and from an industrial affiliates program.
CSLI's publications branch, founded and still headed by Dikran Karagueuzian, has grown into an important publisher of work in linguistics and related fields. Researchers associated with CSLI include Ronald Kaplan, Patrick Suppes, Edward N. Zalta, the mathematicians Keith Devlin, and Solomon Feferman, the linguists Ivan Sag and Joan Bresnan, Annie Zaenen, Lauri Karttunen, and psychologists Herb Clark, B. J. Fogg and Clifford Nass.
CSLI houses the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. It also housed the Reuters Digital Vision Program.

Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies[edit]
The Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies is a university-wide research and teaching institution at Stanford devoted to understanding international problems, policies, and institutions. The Institute produces interdisciplinary scholarly research, engages in outreach to policymakers and public institutions throughout the world, and trains scholars and future leaders on international issues. Its teaching programs include the graduate-level Master of International Policy as well as honors programs in international security and in democracy, development, and the rule of law.
FSI's core and affiliated faculty represent a range of academic backgrounds and perspectives, including medicine, law, engineering, history, political science, economics, and sociology. The faculty's research and teaching focus on a variety of issues, including governance, domestic and international health policy, migration, development, and security. Their work often examines regional dynamics in areas such as Asia, Europe, Africa and Latin America. FSI faculty conduct research, lead interdisciplinary research programs, educate graduate and undergraduate students, and organize policy outreach that engages Stanford in addressing some of the world's most pressing problems.
The institute is composed of 12 centers and programs, including six major research centers:
Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law (CDDRL)
Center on Food Security and the Environment (FSE)
Center for Health Policy, Primary Care and Outcomes Research (CHP/PCOR)
Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC)
The Europe Center (TEC)
Walter H. Shorenstein Asia–Pacific Research Center (APARC)
The institute was founded in 1987 following a faculty committee review that concluded Stanford "should be leading the way in International Studies as we do in science and technology", encompassing interdisciplinary teaching, research, public service and administrative functions. It was first called the institute for International Studies, and was created under the direction of former Stanford President Richard Wall Lyman.[3]
The institute was renamed the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies in 2005 following a $50 million gift made by Stanford alumni Bradford M. Freeman and Ronald P. Spogli.[4]
The immediate past director of FSI was Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar,[5] the former Stanley Morrison Professor of Law at Stanford Law School, a former official in the Obama and Clinton presidential administrations, and current Justice of the California Supreme Court. Previous Directors include Stanford President Emeritus Gerhard Casper; Coit D. Blacker, who served as Special Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs and Senior Director for Russian, Ukrainian and Eurasian Affairs at the National Security Council under National Security Advisor Anthony Lake during the Clinton administration; David Holloway; Walter Falcon; and Stanford President Emeritus Richard Lyman.
FSI appoints faculty and research staff, funds research and scholarly initiatives, directs research projects, and sponsors lectures, policy seminars and conferences. By tradition, FSI undertakes joint faculty appointments with Stanford's seven schools and draws faculty together from the University's academic departments and schools to conduct interdisciplinary research on international issues that transcend academic boundaries.
The institute is home to 40 billeted faculty members – most with joint appointments – and 115 affiliated faculty members with a wide range of academic perspectives.
In addition to its six centers, the institute sponsors the Ford Dorsey Master's in International Policy, the Inter-University Center for Japanese Language Studies, the Program on Energy & Sustainable Development, the Rural Education Action Program, the Stanford Center at Peking University, and the Stanford Program on International and Cross-Cultural Education.

Stanford Humanities Center[edit]
The Stanford Humanities Center
Founded in 1980, the Stanford Humanities Center is a multidisciplinary research institute dedicated to advancing knowledge about culture, philosophy, history, and the arts.
Since its founding in 1980, the Stanford Humanities Center has been sponsoring advanced research into the historical, philosophical, literary, artistic, and cultural dimensions of the human experience. The Humanities Center's annual fellows, international visitors, research workshops, digital humanities laboratory, and roughly fifty annual public events strengthen the intellectual and creative life of the university, foster innovative and interdisciplinary scholarship and teaching, and enrich our understanding of our common humanity. The humanities support democratic culture by nurturing an informed citizenry and seeking solutions to society's most formidable challenges.
Fellowships[edit]
The Center offers approximately twenty-five year-long residential fellowships to Stanford and non-Stanford scholars at different career stages, giving them the opportunity to pursue their research in a supportive intellectual community.
Research Workshops[edit]
Each year, Stanford faculty and graduate students create fifteen diverse research workshops to ask new intellectual questions that often challenge disciplinary boundaries. In addition to providing a space for incubating new ideas in a collegial setting, the workshops professionalize graduate students by introducing them to the conventions of academic life.
Manuscript Review Workshops[edit]
Assembling a team of faculty experts from Stanford and other universities, the Manuscript Review workshops provide critical feedback to junior faculty preparing monographs or other academic manuscripts of similar scope for submission for publication.
Public Lectures[edit]
The Center brings eminent scholars, public intellectuals, and renowned critics to the Stanford campus for lectures and interdisciplinary conferences that enrich the Stanford community with a lively exchange of ideas. Speakers have included Isabel Allende, Roger Chartier, Stephen Jay Gould, Douglas Hofstadter, Gayatri Spivak, Marilynne Robinson, David Adjaye, David Eggers, and other well-known scholars.
Digital Humanities[edit]
The Humanities Center, with the Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis (CESTA), is expanding the possibilities of humanities research and teaching at Stanford by creating opportunities for the discovery and dissemination of new knowledge. Humanities Center scholars are on the forefront of innovation with access to new digital tools to interpret the human experience.
International Visitors Program[edit]
The Center's short-term visitorships draw distinguished international scholars to Stanford to share their research in lectures and seminars with Stanford faculty and students.
Hume Undergraduate Fellowships[edit]
The Humanities Center awards Hume Humanities Honors Fellowships to Stanford seniors writing an honors thesis in a humanities department. In residence for an academic year, Hume fellows contribute to the collegial life of the Center and receive intellectual guidance and mentoring from staff and fellows.

Distinguished Careers Institute[edit]
The Distinguished Careers Institute (DCI), established in 2014, is a year-long residential fellowship for approximately 20 individuals who have already established leadership careers.[6] Fellows are selected based on "how their participation in the program will shape their future life journeys" as well as "what future Fellows will contribute to the program and the broader global community."[7]
Other research centers[edit]
Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory[edit]
The Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (also known as the Stanford AI Lab, or SAIL) is the artificial intelligence (AI) research laboratory of Stanford University. The current director is Professor Chris Manning.[8]
SAIL was started in 1963 by John McCarthy, after he moved from Massachusetts Institute of Technology to Stanford. Lester D. "Les" Earnest, also previously of MIT, served as executive officer (self-deprecatingly, "Chief Bureaucrat") at SAIL from 1965 to 1980.[9] During the same years, SAIL was housed in the D.C. Power building, named not for "Direct Current" but rather for Donald Clinton Power, who held the positions of president, C.E.O. and chairman of General Telephone & Electronics Corporation (later GTE Corporation) between 1951 and 1971.[10] GT&E donated the unfinished building to Stanford University after abandoning plans to establish a research center there.[11][12] During this period SAIL was one of the leading centers for AI research and an early ARPANET site.[13]
D.C. Power was on a hill overlooking Felt Lake in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains behind Stanford. It was about 5 miles (8 km) from the main campus, at 1600 Arastradero Road, midway between Page Mill Road and Alpine Road.[11][12] This area was, and remains, quite rural in nature. Combined with the rather extreme 1960s architecture of the place, this remote setting led to a certain isolation.[11][12] Some people who worked there reported feeling as if they were already in the future. The building was demolished in 1986; as of 2003, the site is home to Portola Pastures (an equestrian center adjacent to the Arastradero Open Space Preserve).[14]
SAIL created the WAITS operating system on a computer called SAIL.[15] WAITS ran on various models of Digital Equipment Corporation PDP computers, starting with the PDP-6, then the KA10 and KL10. WAITS also ran on Foonly systems at CCRMA and LLL. The SAIL system was shut down in 1991.[15]
SAIL, the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Language, was developed by Dan Swinehart and Bob Sproull of the Stanford AI Lab in 1970.[16]
Alumni of the original SAIL played a major role in many Silicon Valley firms, becoming founders of now-large firms such as Cisco Systems and Sun Microsystems as well as smaller companies such as Vicarm Inc. (acquired by Unimation), Foonly, Elxsi, Imagen, Xidex, Valid Logic Systems, and D.E. Shaw & Co. Research accomplishments at SAIL were many, including in the fields of speech recognition and robotics.[15]
Demise and rebirth[edit]
In 1980, SAIL's activities were merged into the university's Computer Science Department and it moved into Margaret Jacks Hall on the main Stanford campus.
SAIL was reopened in 2004, now in the Gates Computer Science Building, with Sebastian Thrun becoming its new director. SAIL's 21st century mission is to "change the way we understand the world";[8] its researchers contribute to fields such as bioinformatics, cognition, computational geometry, computer vision, decision theory, distributed systems, game theory, general game playing, image processing, information retrieval, knowledge systems, logic, machine learning, multi-agent systems, natural language, neural networks, planning, probabilistic inference, sensor networks, and robotics.[8] The best-known achievement of the new SAIL is the Stanley self-driving car that won the 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge.
Stanford Center for Entrepreneurial Studies[edit]
The Center for Entrepreneurial Studies (CES) at Stanford University is a multidisciplinary business oriented program targeted to both undergraduate and graduate students. It incorporates courses from Stanford University School of Engineering and Stanford Graduate School of Business. It also incorporates Stanford Mayfield Scholars Program that seeks to give select undergraduate students an opportunity to take business related coursework and to intern in high tech startups. CES was founded by Tom Byers and Charles A. Holloway.
Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics[edit]
The Knoll, home to CCRMA
The Stanford University Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA), founded by John Chowning, is a multi-discipline facility where composers and researchers work together using computer-based technology both as an artistic medium and as a research tool. CCRMA's director is Chris Chafe. CCRMA's current faculty includes a mix of musicians and engineers including Julius Smith, Jonathan Berger, Max Mathews (emeritus), Ge Wang, Takako Fujioka, Tom Rossing, Jonathan Abel, Marina Bosi, David Berners, Patricia Alessandrini, Jay Kadis, and Fernando Lopez-Lezcano. Emeritus professor Max Mathews died in 2011.[17]
Widely used digital sound synthesis techniques like FM synthesis and digital waveguide synthesis were developed CCRMA and licensed to industry partners.[18] The FM synthesis patent brought Stanford $20 million before it expired, making it (in 1994) "the second most lucrative licensing agreement in Stanford's history".[19]
The Knoll[edit]
Almost 100 years ago, this Spanish Gothic residence, known as the Knoll, was originally designed by Louis Christian Mullgardt,[20] and built as a residence for the University's President. In 1946, the building became home to the Music Department, and then in 1986, CCRMA took over residency.
Damaged in 1989 during the Loma Prieta earthquake, the Knoll nonetheless housed CCRMA in its damaged condition until a complete internal reconstruction between 2004–2005. The reopening of the facility was celebrated in the Spring of 2005 with the CCRMA: newStage Festival. This unique building now comprises several state-of-the-art music studios and top-notch research facilities, hosting a variety of students, artists and scientists.
CCRMA is affiliated with the Center for Computer Assisted Research in the Humanities (CCARH), also located at Stanford. CCARH conducts research on constructing computer databases for music and on creating programs that allow researchers to access, analyze, print, and electronically perform the music.
Stanford Institute for Creativity and the Arts (SiCa)[edit]
The Stanford Institute for Creativity and the Arts (SiCa), established in 2006, serves as the core programmatic hub for the Stanford Arts Initiative, leading the development of new undergraduate arts programs, hosting artists in residence, awarding grants for multidisciplinary arts research and teaching, incubating collaborative performances and exhibitions with campus partners and other institutions, and providing centralized communication for arts events and programs at Stanford University.
National Performance of Dams Program[edit]
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering maintains the National Performance of Dams Program, a national database of structural and operational data related to dam systems in the U.S. Begun in 1994, this program provides data to the dam engineering and safety community about the in-service performance of dam systems. The analysis of this data covering both successful operations and incidents, including failures, is intended to lead to improvements in design and requirements, engineering processes and standards, operational procedures and guidelines, and public policy development. [21]
Michelle R. Clayman Institute for Gender Research[edit]
Founded in 1974, and named after economist Michelle R. Clayman, the Michelle R. Clayman Institute for Gender Research at Stanford University is one of the nation's oldest research organizations focused on the study of gender. The Clayman Institute designs basic interdisciplinary research, creates knowledge, networks people and ideas at Stanford, nationally, and internationally to effect change and promote gender equality. The Clayman Institute plays an integral role in the Stanford community by bringing together local, national and international scholars and thought leaders from across disciplines to create knowledge and effect change. The place where the Clayman Institute is located was renamed the Carolyn Lewis Attneave House in 2019.[22] It was formerly named Serra House after Junípero Serra.[22]
In 1972 faculty and graduate students in the feminist movement were the impetus behind the formation of the Institute. In 1974, the Center for Research on Women (CROW) was the first interdisciplinary center or institute of its kind and quickly built a strong reputation under the direction of Myra Strober, the founding Director. The reputation of CIGR grew outside Stanford, and the University of Chicago Press chose Stanford as the base of the second five-year rotation of its new interdisciplinary journal, Signs.[23] In 1983 the Institute was renamed the Institute for Research on Women and Gender (IRWG) and continued to expand the gender conversation with the "Difficult Dialogues" program, which ran in the 1990s through 2004. In 2004, the new Director, Professor Londa Schiebinger, a historian of science, formed a plan to create a series of research initiatives on gender issues, backed by a research fellowship program, that would attract scholars from Stanford and abroad. With the help of matching funds from the Hewlett Foundation and strong support from the Institute's Advisory Council, Schiebinger spearheaded a fundraising drive to create an endowment for the Institute. IRWG was renamed in honor of Michelle R. Clayman, the major donor in the campaign, who serves as the Chair of the Institute's Advisory Council.
Research[edit]
The Clayman Institute designs basic research and supports the creation of knowledge through its Fellowships and interdisciplinary programs. Recent reports/publications include:
Gendered Innovations in Science and Engineering,[24] Londa Schiebinger, ed., 2008.
Dual-Career Academic Couples: What Universities Need to Know.[25] The Michelle R. Clayman Institute, 2008. This Clayman Institute research study shows that over 70% of faculty are in dual-career relationships. This report tackles tough questions and recommends policies to maximize options.
Climbing the Technical Ladder: Obstacles and Solutions for Mid-Level Women in Information Technology.[26] The Michelle R. Clayman Institute and the Anita Borg Institute, 2008. This report provides an in-depth look into the barriers to retention and advancement of technical women in Silicon Valley's high tech industry and provides practical recommendations to employers on overcoming these barriers.
The Clayman Institute runs two fellowship programs. The Faculty Research Fellowships seek to drive intellectual and social innovation through interdisciplinary gender studies. They include residential fellowships for tenured, tenure-track, and postdoctoral scholars from Stanford University, and U.S. and foreign universities. The Clayman Institute also offers Graduate Dissertation Fellowships for Stanford University doctoral students. Fellowships are awarded to students who are in the writing stages of their dissertations, and whose research focuses on women and/or gender.

The Research Desk: Multiple subjects on 1916 piece
By David T. Alexander
Published: Jan 30, 2014, 7 PM
The "Five Presidents" medal, produced in 1916, reflects numismatist Thomas L. Elder's deep interest in the American Revolution and his devotion to the New York Numismatic Club, which he helped found.
Coin World images.
Collectors often think of commemorative medals in terms of a single subject — tribute to an artist or military hero, a royal coronation, inauguration of a president or an important anniversary of some significant event.
Experienced medal collectors soon learn that medals in their collections may relate to two, three or more subjects. One such is the 38-millimeter 1916 medal released by professional numismatist Thomas L. Elder (born 1874, died 1948) honoring the New York Numismatic Club, which he helped organize in 1908 and 1909.
Elder was one of America's leading dealers, who presented a decades-long stream of high quality and collectible auctions, and sold ancient, world, and American coins and medals at retail.
He was also famous for his many strong and freely expressed opinions on numismatics and numismatists, temperance, sound money, politics and current events.
Elder fastened on medals as his favorite medium of expression, issuing a steady stream of them from about 1903 until 1939. These ranged from celebrations of the life of President Abraham Lincoln to savagely satirical forays into the politics of the American Numismatic Association and American presidential elections.
Elder's medals were definitively cataloged by numismatist Thomas K. DeLorey in the ANA journal, The Numismatist, in 1980.
The "Five Presidents" medal reflects Elder's deep interest in the American Revolution with an obverse presenting an emblem used on Continental paper currency, showing a beaver — representing the 13 Colonies — chewing through the trunk of a tall palm tree, which European artists thought emblematic of America. The Latin PERSEVERANDO translates to "Persevering."
The reverse is devoted to the NYNC, another of Elder's favorite subjects. He listed four Club presidents: founder Frank C. Higgins, artist-cataloger and Mint mark pioneer Augustus G. Heaton, collector Elliott Smith, and Union News Co. mogul and mega-collector F.C.C. Boyd. For some unknown reason, this medal is called "Five Presidents," though only four are listed! Elder himself never served in that office but always enjoyed ballyhooing the club.
Despite his near lifetime as a New York City resident, Elder had the Chicago firm of Charles Hanson strike most of his medals. This issue, DeLorey 90, was produced in silver, German silver, brass, oreide, aluminum, lead and red fiber.
Shown is the aluminum version. Like most Elder issues, it is relatively scarce and difficult to find in 2014, but is of lasting interest to collectors thanks to its multiple subjects.
DAVID T. ALEXANDER is author of American Art Medals, 1909-1995 and a fellow of the American Numismatic Society. He is a numismatist/researcher for Harlan J. Berk Ltd.

Latest information and updates about COVID-19 (coronavirus) from McMaster University
Rethink Business Education
DeGroote School of Business
DeGroote Menu
Reimagining Curriculum
New Student Home
Search McMaster Menu
In this new space, students will embrace the future of business. They'll learn about and prepare to excel in careers that don't even exist yet. It's all about enhancing the student experience for the next generation.
Joel MacPherson — BCom '19, 2018-19 President - DeGroote Commerce Society
With the resounding support of McMaster's leadership, our Board of Governors, and a foundational gift from the McLean family, we will be evolving the scope and practice of business education with a new purpose-built space on McMaster's campus — an addition to the existing footprint of the DeGroote School of Business — to be named the McLean Centre for Collaborative Discovery.
The McLean Centre is symbolic of the values and beliefs held and practiced within the DeGroote School of Business. It will profoundly shape a new culture, an ethos, and an approach to learning. Our vision is to make the McLean Centre the premiere destination for students to discover, learn, and collaborate. We envision incorporating a "know-how" approach through problem-based multi-faculty discovery, enabled by a state-of-the-art learning environment.
Innovation is the guiding philosophy for the McLean Centre for Collaborative Discovery. Faculty and students will study and explore the innovations facing each business sector, how to work within those parameters, and more importantly, how to move beyond them.
The Power of Place
The philosophy guiding the creation of this expansion is that innovation will occur on every floor. The building will be student-friendly, catering to discovery and services students require.
The McLean Centre has ten floors including a welcoming ground floor with a café and light-filled open spaces where students can collide, engage in discussions, and participate in major events. The upper floors will have curated learning "hubs" or "labs" — organized spaces for students, faculty members and business partners to collaborate on solutions for the challenges facing the world of business in the 21st century.
All labs at the McLean Centre for Collaborative Discovery will operate in partnership with each other. We envision a cross-disciplinary approach that will focus on the future of finance, AI, analytics, social impact, and the entrepreneurial mindset. These spaces enhance the opportunity for dynamic and collaborative work to unravel business challenges and seize opportunities in a rapidly changing digital age.
This stunning building will be a real home for our students. Our students will develop soft and hard skills to prepare them to thrive in a world of change, disruption, and uncertainty.
Discovery-Based Learning Hubs
Unequivocally, we know that there will always remain the need for a deep understanding of quantitative skills taught in finance, accounting, operations management, and analytics. However, our students will see challenges and problems through a much broader lens when combining these skills with other disciplines such as economics, health sciences and engineering.
Within this Centre, we will catalyze this unique approach to education through a set of interconnected, networked, curated learning "hubs" or "labs." These will be organized spaces dedicated to supporting students, faculty, and business partners as they collaborate on solutions for the challenges facing the business world. Each will be designed for interactive, interdisciplinary teaching and learning. Students from all faculties will collaboratively engage in problem-based discovery. Activities in a hub will replace some classroom hours to augment core content with a learning-by-doing approach.
Our students are already learning from and with other students and faculty across the university, as well as partners in the community.
If you have any questions or would like to get involved, please send a message to transformdegroote@mcmaster.ca.

Coming Soon: 'The Divine' by Hanuka & Lavie
January 28, 2015 March 12, 2015 by Chris Jalufka
In 2012 illustrator Tomer Hanuka released the art book 'Overkill', a collection of his editorial illustrations, film posters, and graphic novel work. One piece was 'From God's Mountain IV,' a piece that was titled as being part of the upcoming project 'The Divine.'
The illustration is a flash of epic violence — a delicate take on the brutality of war, man unraveling at the skin.
'From God's Mountain IV' from 'The Divine' illustrated by Asaf Hanuka and Tomer Hanuka | written by Boaz Lavie
'The Divine' is a graphic novel illustrated by Tomer Hanuka and his brother Asaf Hanuka, from a script by Boaz Lavie that has seen it's initial release earlier this January. The first version released is the French edition published by Dargaud, available as an ebook in the French Kindle store and as a hard cover edition. The English edition is available for pre-order on Amazon by First Second and will ship July 14th, 2015.
I don't speak French. Not a word. Still, I bought the French ebook edition and pre-ordered the English version. With pure visual language as guidance, 'The Divine' is a sprawling adventure of war — a militarized government being taken on by an army of children and Gods.
Asaf Hanuka handled the sketching with Tomer at the coloring and inking. Even in the most abstract and magical moments of 'The Divine' you feel the strong tug of reality in their work. Similar to Asaf's comic work in 'The Realist' which finds true insight and magic in the everyday, 'The Divine' does the opposite in bringing truth to the magical.
Hanuka, Lavie, and Hanuka have created an environment in 'The Divine' with a sense of the universal known — the images are familiar because we've seen war. We've watched the news and have witnessed the violent crush of a foreign people. In this common ground they've constructed a stunning piece of heartbreaking fiction.
