New digs: Claudine Gay settles in at Massachusetts Hall—just across the Old Yard from her former Faculty of Arts and Sciences dean’s office in University Hall—on July 5, the first (post-holiday) workday in the thirtieth president’s new administration. A profile of President Gay appears elsewhere in this issue.
