Pakaluk and Waldstein wish call this new group Communio Magistrorum\, & quot\;community of scholars"\;\, as that phrase has been the gloss sup plied by Popes since the 13th c on the phrase Universitas magistrorum\, us ed to describe a university.  In good 13th century fashion\, we propose to meet at a Publick House\, where drinks may complement the inherent conviv iality of such a gathering\, viz. The Queen Mary\, on Thursdays at 7pm\, c onvening around any free tables outside.  The meeting will last no more th an an hour\, until 8 pm\, although as regards participants continuing the discussion until a later hour if they wish -- nihil prohibet.  (Yes\, Lati n will be the secret language of the group.  Shhhh!) Our first topics: 1.  What is a university?  How does it differ from a college?  and 2.  What i s implied by Ex Corde's teaching that a university is constituted by the f aculty together with their students? For background reading we wish to rec ommend\, as supplying helpful perspective and an objective point of view f rom someone who has no axe to grind\, the entry\, "\;University"\; \, in Johnson's Cyclopedia\, available from google books here.  However\, it is not necessary to do this background reading in order to attend. Plea se feel free to spread the word.  Also\, as always\, if you do not wish to be included on the mailing list for this group\, please let us know.  THE LAST VERIFIED PHOTO OF PROF.
