Time to take an intellectual and spiritual trip down memory lane with three of the most extraordinary figures of our undergraduate years: the great art historian Vincent Scully, the unforgettable University Chaplain William Sloane Coffin, and Sterling Professor of Humanities Harold Bloom, who passed away on October 14. Links to lectures by all three of them are present on our Faculty Videos page. Click here for some of Professor Scully’s most memorable lectures, including talks on Eero Saarinen, Louis Kahn, Maya Lin, and modern architecture. Click here for some of Reverend Coffin’s most memorable sermons at New York’s historic Riverside Church, where he served for more than ten years as Senior Minister after his time at Yale. And click here to view Professor Bloom’s lectures. We’re still looking for videos of historian John Morton Blum and philosopher Paul Weiss. We’ll let you know as soon as we find them. Please tell us if there are any other professors you’d like us to search for. FIND MORE on our Faculty videos page. Classmate Publications

He was a musical prodigy, especially on the trumpet. He could play anything, but his greatest love was jazz and the blues. He was already giving music lessons to others by age ten, and in high school he played every weekend with an adult band, as well as the New Hampshire Symphony. He kept making music at Yale, playing in both the football band and the concert band. “John played trumpet in the Yale Marching Band during the years when a salacious performance was de rigeur,” says his roommate, John Crowley. “And he had a beautiful singing voice,” adds Joe Cohen, a fellow Saybrugian. “He was soft spoken but a really nice guy.” … READ MORE

Retirement Hobby” When Dave retired in 2003 from a 30-year career in management consulting with McKinsey & Company, the first item on his bucket list was to learn about “the mysteries of the universe, from the largest scales (astrophysics and cosmology) to the smallest (quantum theory).” This was the delayed fulfillment of a childhood dream Dave had as a boy growing up near Cape Canaveral, Florida.
