Clavius Community Notes

1990 NOTRE DAME, NOTRE DAME, IN
Meeting #28: 24 June to 4 August

Dr. James Powell, Assistant Vice-President for Academic Affairs, welcomed us to spend the summer of 1990 as guests of the University in the Department of Mathematics. As on our two previous visits to Notre Dame we lived in the is O’Hara-Grace complex of Townhouses each of which is a two story four bedroom house with full bath on second floor and with a kitchen, dining room end half-bath on the first floor. Our seminars took place in the air-conditioned Computer Center/Mathematics building where we had the use of a classroom on the second floor. We shared three offices near this classroom. We had office privileges both in the mathematics library and in the main library along with access to the computers as well as access to the recreational facilities at the new sports complex. The Eucharist was celebrated each evening from Monday through Friday in Townhouse #6 where we also held our business meetings and Faith discussions. A social hour was held in Townhouse #5 following the Liturgy and the Jesuits took their meals in Townhouse #3. As in the past, we were warmly received by the people at Notre Dame.
