My final image is of a late afternoon concert in the atrium of sunlight streaming in through the skylights to illuminate the members of the Peregrine Trio and of the sublime music of Mozart, Beethoven, and Haydn sailing throughout the building. It seemed a fitting finale to a stimulating summer spent immersed in a world devoted to the pursuit of mathematics. Cipra, B.A. 1999. Ferguson, C. 1994.
