Stephen G. McCombe, former president and founder of the Harvard University Security, Parking, and Museum Guard Union (HUSPMGU) and longtime Harvard employee, died in September of multiple organ failure.

In one photo Sophie Täuber-Arp holds the fanciful Dada Head, 1920, which she constructed; the actual painted sphere is just a few rooms away. Her husband and frequent collaborator, Jean Arp, is seen with a monocle-like disk over his left eye - the Dadaists, fascinated with mechanization and also repelled by it, often used geometric shapes in their art.
