Up in scenic Storrs ...

I wish Charles Olson had had better handwriting. Guess Massachusetts schools didn't teach the Palmer Method.

I'll be digging through some of the hundreds of folders of Olson's work housed at the Thomas J. Dodd Research Center for a few more days, and then will head back south. Yesterday I came across the first presentation Olson made to the Black Mountain College faculty in 1948; it impressed them enough that they invited him back, of course.

Nine years later, he was the last to leave.
