    TARNHELM CLAIMS PLACE
AT CAMBRIDGE
Peter Parisi
Capital Times Advisor
A copy of the 1990 Tarnhelm has
been placed in the English and
philosophy faculty library of Cambridge
University in England.
Alex Neill, who taught philosophy at
Penn State Harrisburg last year, said he
was impressed with the quality of the art
and writing in the campus literary
magazine. He put a copy in the
browsing section of the library.
"I thought it was rather good," Neill,
a specialist in aesthetics, said in a phone
interview. "I like the photography, and a
whole bunch of the written pieces." He
recalled specifically the photography of
Kevin Facer and poetry of Karen
Mowery.
"I just thought it would be neat for
people to have a look at it," he said.
Neill earned his doctorate at Cambridge.
The browsing section of the English
and philosophy library of the centuries
old English university is not part of the
catalogued collection, Neill explained. It
is "a place in the library where you can
leave stuff for people to just come and
read and marvel over, dither - because Yoti
think it's interesting or don't need it any
more."
Having completed a one-year
appointment at Penn State Harrisburg,
Neill was back in England packing to
move from Cambridge to San Antonio,
Texas, where he will be visiting
assistant professor of philosophy at
Trinity University.

GENERAL NEWS
Neill, a native Englishman, said he
thought, "there's some interesting things
in here. Why don't I just stick it in this
browsing chunk of the library so people
can see it?"
Although Neill parted with his copy
for the trans-Atlantic voyage, he asked a
faculty friend to send him a new copy in
Texas.
The 1990 Tarnhelm was edited by
Judith Johnson Farina and Karen
Mowery. Theodora Rapp Graham is
faculty advisor; Linda Ross, graphics
