“Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.”
— Seneca​ (On the Shortness of Life)

Today at 16:00 UTC we refresh our understanding of the technical standards for the timing-systems that maintain the temporal framework for daily life in education communities.  The campus clock continues as a monument of beauty and structure even though digitization of everything has rendered the central community clock redundant.

Most leading practice discovery (and innovation) is happening with the Network Time Protocols (NTP) that synchronize the time stamps of widely separated data centers.  In operation since before 1985, NTP is one of the oldest Internet protocols in current use and underlies the Internet of Things build out.  NTP is particularly important in maintaining accurate time stamps for safety system coordination and for time stamps on email log messages.

    There are written fine arts standards that have been developed by various organizations and educational bodies. These standards provide a framework for what students should know and be able to do in the arts at different grade levels. Here are a few examples of fine arts standards:

    National Core Arts Standards: The National Core Arts Standards were developed by the National Coalition for Core Arts Standards and outline what students should know and be able to do in dance, media arts, music, theater, and visual arts at different grade levels.

    State Fine Arts Standards: Many states have their own fine arts standards that are aligned with the National Core Arts Standards but may be tailored to reflect the unique needs and priorities of the state; e.g., State of Ohio Fine Art Standards

    International Baccalaureate Arts Standards: The International Baccalaureate (IB) program offers arts standards as part of their curriculum framework for the arts. These standards are designed to develop students' creative and critical thinking skills in the arts.

    Arts Education Partnership National Standards for Arts Education: The Arts Education Partnership has developed national standards for arts education that cover the four major artistic disciplines: dance, music, theater, and visual arts.

    Today at 15:00 UTC we drill into the technical specifics that contribute to the safety and sustainability of spaces used for the teaching, practice and

    display of the fine arts.  These occupancies are typically at greater risk than classrooms because they usually contain volatile fluids for artistic painting

    or biologic specimen preservation, kilns for pottery, fabrics and related machinery for teaching fashion design and practice.

    Raisin Monday is traditionally celebrated at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. It typically takes place on the third Monday in November. The event is part of the Raisin Weekend, a long-standing tradition where first-year students (freshers) are "adopted" by older students (academic parents) and engage in various activities and pranks.

    The tradition of naming terms after religious feasts is rooted in medieval ecclesiastical calendars. The use of "Hilary" for this period originated in the English legal system during the Middle Ages, where the courts divided the year into four sittings: Hilary, Easter, Trinity, and Michaelmas. Universities like Oxford adopted similar naming conventions, reflecting their historical ties to the church and legal professions.
    §
    This naming has persisted as a tradition, even as modern calendars have standardized dates. At other UK universities (e.g., Cambridge), the equivalent January-starting term is called Lent term instead.
