Tigers (still) in love
In response to: Tigers in love
By John Wilheim ’75
Published in the April 7, 2010 issue
I read “Tigers in Love” with special interest (Alumni Scene, Feb. 3). My wife and I were something of trendsetters in this area. We met as undergraduates in the fall of 1972, and soon decided we would marry upon graduation in 1975. Then, in the spring of 1974, we realized that...

Learning about B.C.E. and C.E.
In response to: A moment with...
By Bert B. Katz ’74

I found it amusing to see Andrew Schlafly cite the use of B.C.E. and C.E. as proof that Wikipedia is “an atheistic and liberal resource.” I learned about the use of B.C.E. and C.E. in Hebrew school. I had no idea I was attending an atheistic and liberal religious institution.
