A poem byĀ Elizabeth Garrett
Tyranny of choice
Pick a card, any card You'll say. I love this trick The tease and tyranny of choice The dove's tail tender On your fine and hidden fingers, And the thumb I'm under.
You know my Queen of Hearts By the dog-ear on her top-left Bottom-right corner; By the voluptuous sad mouth Which will not smile, Whichever way you turn her.
Elizabeth Garrett
Rest in peace, President Garrett.
Cornellians are already familiar, but President Elizabeth Garrett died last night and they told us today.
It really sucks. Like, reallyĀ sucks. She was our first female president, a window to a brighter future and new and necessary dialogue. She was also a real person with family and friends and a warm personality. I had the pleasure of meeting her with my friends last spring and I liked her immediately. I didnāt know her personally beyond that, but still. It hurts knowing that a picture is all I have left of her.
I want to send condolences to her husband, family and all the relationships she fostered.

"A lot of interdisciplinary work is directed towards solving particular problems ā problems of health, problems of sustainability, policy related problems. "But to really have a sense of what those solutions mean to us as human beings, I think you have to have the humanities to ask deep questions about where progress is leading us, what they do to our bonds as human beings in a community ā¦ I think that it is vital that you have both disciplinary training, including that in the humanities, and that you have an interdisciplinary approach to complex problems."
