Our online meetings coincides with the day of two IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee teleconferences at 14:00 Central European time and 2:00 PM Eastern time in the Americas. Starting 2023 we have begun to break down our coverage of information and communication technology embedded in campus buildings into four modules – Infotech 100, 200, 300 and Infotech 400. Open to everyone. Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page. Ablution facilities refer to designated areas or equipment used for personal hygiene and cleansing rituals, often in religious, cultural, or practical contexts. These facilities typically include sinks, showers, or basins for washing the body, hands, face, or feet, ensuring cleanliness and adherence to hygiene standards. In religious settings, such as mosques or temples, ablution facilities support ritual purification (e.g., wudu in Islam) before prayers, emphasizing spiritual and physical cleanliness. In housekeeping, ablution facilities align with maintaining high sanitation standards, providing spaces for washing dishes, laundry, or personal care to prevent contamination and promote health. These areas are equipped with clean water, soap, and drying tools, designed for accessibility and efficiency. Regular maintenance of ablution facilities, including cleaning and disinfecting surfaces, ensures compliance with hygiene protocols, reduces germ spread, and fosters a safe, sanitary environment for users, whether in homes, public spaces, or institutions. For today’s session we pull together previous work related to home economics; admittedly a broad topic. https://standardsmichigan.com/home-economics-2/ https://standardsmichigan.com/water-and-sanitation/ https://standardsmichigan.com/what-are-plumbing-codes/ https://standardsmichigan.com/history-of-the-kitchen/ https://standardsmichigan.com/cleaning-guide/ To be continued… St. Olaf College | Dakota County Minnesota https://standardsmichigan.com/inglenook/ I sit beside the fire and think -J.R.R.

Of all that I have seen
Of meadow flowers and butterflies
In summers that have been
Of yellow leaves and gossamer
In autumns that there were
With morning mist and silver sun
And wind upon my hair
I sit beside the fire and think
Of how the world will be
When winter comes without a spring
That I shall ever see
For still there are so many things
That I have never seen
In every wood in every spring
There is a different green
I sit beside the fire and think
Of people long ago
And people that will see a world
That I shall never know
But all the while I sit and think
Of times there were before
I listen for returning feet
And voices at the door Prometheus 400

The calendar of Anglosphere educational settlements subtly shapes life of the mind, generally; and family and community life, specifically. Its cadence has roots in the cathedral schools and monastic learning communities of medieval Europe. Universities were not originally organized around modern “semesters.” Instead, the year followed the Christian liturgical calendar, agricultural seasons, food paths, daylight availability, and travel conditions.
In America educational calendars were nudged along by agricultural cycles. In the United Kingdom university calendars evolved into three major terms: Michaelmas in autumn, associated with arrival and beginnings; Hilary or Lent in winter, associated with discipline and study; and Trinity or Easter in spring, associated with examinations, outdoor rituals, music, rowing, gardens, and celebration.
Modern commencement traditions across the Anglosphere are descendants of medieval spring degree ceremonies. Academic gowns, hoods, processions, Latin phrases, formal dining, chapel music, and public recognition all preserve traces of the university as a scholarly guild and religious-civic community.
Before railways, electric lighting, and central heating, universities had to adapt to muddy roads, short winter days, limited candles, cold buildings, and agricultural obligations. Spring therefore became the natural season of culmination, reunion, athletic competition, courtship, and ceremony.
The medieval university was not merely a school but an educational settlement — a self-governing town of scholars, libraries, chapels, kitchens, workshops, residences, and dining halls. That settlement pattern survives in residential colleges, quadrangles, tutorial systems, common rooms, chapel choirs, and formal meals.
Anglosphere campuses retain this ancient emotional rhythm: autumn seriousness, winter inwardness, and spring release. That continuity helps explain why colleges and universities still feel culturally distinct from ordinary commercial society. (Relata: Gulliver Visits the Great Academy of Lagado)
We’re “organized” but not too organized; like the bookseller who knows where every book can be found.
