It’s cool to see seed libraries popping up in libraries, both public and academic, too.

Not to quibble, sorry, but Einstein never taught there. Lots of other luminaries, tho! 🌱

Big time congrats - you’re such an interdisciplinary inspiration

This would have been a great visual to include in your MA thesis! 😎

Also, while I like your source, it is a publicity mag of Rollins! But they get a lot correct. True story: the reason Rice called the church “obscene” was because the font of the church’s title was smaller than the font of the church’s DONORS! 🫢

Right on, Robert. My preferred account is Martin Duberman’s Black Mountain or, um, my The Farm at Black Mountain College. There was a loyalty pledge but it was never offered to Rice and the loyalty wasn’t to, say, America or capitalism but rather to Holt. The whole thing, it seems, was a purge.

Super interesting and provocative post! But for the record, no one was fired from Rollins for refusing to sign a loyalty oath. #blackmountaincollege

Let's surely hope so! 😍

Indeed. Or better yet, to be *part* of that exceptional community.

What is the name of your uncle?

Actually, Creeley taught at BMC, he wasn’t a student there.
