Social
|
GMB hosts several social gatherings every year. Normally, we meet at a pub for the beginning of the Fall term, feast at the Yule social just before Christmas, and send each other off for summer with a nice dinner at one of Berkeley's wonderful restaurants. These are, of course, the formal events. But, we also get together for casual drinks, meals, and conversations quite often. Join the listserve or check back on the website for upcoming events.

A dose of medieval . . .
Pisces dicti unde et pecus, a pascendo scilicet. Reptilia ideo dicuntur haec quae natant, eo quod reptandi habeant speciem et naturam; quamvis se in profundum inmergant, tamen in natando repunt. Isidore of Seville, Etymologies, De piscibus, XII.vi
