Pretty Hokie, If You Ask Me

I spent some time yesterday in Lexington with Jack Ackerly. The Blue Ridge were orange, and it was the most beautiful day of the year. He spotted me sitting on a bench in Hopkins Green reading the New York Times and writing postcards and came over to chat. Jack is no longer rector of the University of Virginia, but he still takes a keen interest in higher education, so he was naturally distressed about the fire Saturday night at Virginia Tech's Newman Library. "It was a catastrophe," he said. "They lost both their books."

REW, an alumnus, replied by email: "I'm glad to learn they're making progress in Blacksburg. The library was significantly expanded after I left in 1971. It's comforting to know they have doubled the number of books. You should visit sometime. They have a wonderful collection of Field and Stream magazines."
