Convocation snapshots: For the first time since 1929, the University's Spring Convocation, held on June 10, brought together the College, divisions, and schools on the main quad. Following lunch, units bestowed their degree certificates in separate ceremonies; the social sciences awarding of diplomas and doctoral hoods took place in Rockefeller Chapel.

I landed a tenure track job at California State University, Chico, in fall 2009 in the history department, and I am really enjoying the department and the students. I was a visiting scholar at UC Berkeley while I finished up my manuscript (The Missing Olympics: 1940 Tokyo Games was published by Routledge in 2007 and was recently favorably reviewed by William Kelly in the Journal of Japanese Studies) and taught at San Francisco State University as a lecturer for several years. My recent research focuses on the discursive formation of the East Asian Olympic Games, and I've been presenting at international conferences."  Thomas Huertas, AM'72, PhD'77 (Economics), vice chairman, Committee of European Banking Supervisors and director, Banking Sector, Financial Services Authority (UK), published Crisis: Cause, Containment and Cure (Palgrave Macmillan, 2010).
