There's just no getting away from science-and-religion. Yesterday's (snail) mail brought a flier from the Williams College Society of Alumni, giving the schedule of events for my upcoming 15th (!!) college reunion. The very first item on Thursday's list of faculty lectures:
1 p.m. "Celebrating Evolution from a Religious Perspective" featuring Stuart Crampton '58, Barclay Jermain Prof. of Natural Philosophy, Emeritus and Richard Spalding, Chaplain to the College
That would actually probably be pretty interesting-- Prof. Crampton was co-advisor for my senior thesis, and he's a really smart and interesting guy. Thanks to Union's trimester calendar, though, I'll need to be on campus through noon Friday.

The LA Times has a horribly shallow article with the headline "Chrisitans sue for right not to tolerate policies".
