Alfred North Whitehead was born on 15 February 1861, the son of the Reverend Alfred Whitehead, at that time the headmaster of a private school in Ramsgate, and later Vicar of St Peter’s, Isle of Thanet, and honorary Canon of Canterbury. Another son, Henry, became Superior of the Oxford Mission to Calcutta, and ultimately Bishop of Madras. From Sherborne School Whitehead proceeded in 1880 to Trinity College Cambridge, where he remained for the next thirty years. In the Mathematical Tripos of 1883 he was bracketed third wrangler, the senior being G. B. Mathews, afterwards Fellow of St John’s, F.R.S., and a distinguished pure mathematician: in 1884 he was elected a Fellow of his college, and a few months afterwards was put on the staff as an assistant lecturer. In 1890 he married Evelyn, daughter of Captain A. Wade of the Seaforth Highlanders, and niece of the famous Chinese scholar and diplomat Sir Thomas Wade. In my undergraduate days at Trinity when he was the junior member of the mathematical staff, he had a place apart among our teachers, chiefly because his philosophic urge to grasp the nature of mathematics in its widest aspects led him to study what were at that time considered out-of-the-way branches of the subject: for instance, he offered a course of lectures on ‘Non-Euclidean Geometry’: this would not be thought remarkable nowadays, but the schoolmasters of that day had not prepared us for the existence of any alternative to Euclid: and we became much interested, particularly when we found that the lecturer could tell us also about algebras in which the commutative rule of multiplication, ab=ba , was not obeyed. He was in fact at this time writing a book on such topics, which was published in 1898 under the title A Treatise on Universal Algebra, with Aplicatons , the title being taken from a paper of Sylvester’s which had appeared in 1884. ‘The purpose of this work’ he said in the preface, ‘is to present a thorough investigation of the various systems of symbolic reasoning allied to ordinary algebra. The chief examples of such systems are Hamilton’s Quaternions, Grassmann’s Calculus of Extension and Boole’s Symbolic Logic.’

Mentoring Model

Abstract Mentoring in higher education is most often conceptualized as the relationship between a more senior and less experienced faculty member or between faculty and student in the process of imparting knowledge and skills from the mentor (senior member) to mentee (junior member). The top-down approach to mentoring is well described in educational and clinical teaching literature. This article describes the development of a multi-directional mentoring model that is employed within one academic department in communication sciences and disorders. In the multidirectional model, all members of the mentoring group including senior faculty, junior faculty, and students benefit from the experience of each member. The application of a multidirectional mentoring model is applied to the reciprocal teaching and learning processes between senior and junior faculty, a process in which the roles of mentor and mentee change related to the specialized expertise of each member.

Resumen: Este artículo propone, a la luz de los estudiosde masculinidades, que las enseñanzas que recibe un narco-junior en la novela Fiesta en la madriguera de Juan Pablo Villalobos se vinculan a las instrucciones machistas que reciben los niños varones: violencia, poder, control de las emociones. El aprendizaje del niño para convertirse en hombre, sin embargo, se ve cuestionado en la novela, a la vez que se pone en duda la masculinidad hegemónica del padre. La formación de Tochtli concluye no cuando es capaz de derramar sangre como un macho, sino cuando descubre que esa sangre lo une a su padre. Palabras clave: narcotráfico, masculinidades, machismo, aprendizaje, formación.Learning to Be Narco/Male. Fiesta en la madrigueraby Juan Pablo Villalobos Abstract: This paper proposes, based on studies of masculinities, that the teachings received by a junior member of a narco group in the novel Fiesta en la madriguera (Party in the Burrow) by Juan Pablo Villalobos, are linked to sexist instructions given to children boys: violence, power, control of emotions. The child’s learning to become a man, however, is questioned in the novel and the hegemonic masculinity of the father is also called into question. Tochtli’s training does not end when he learns to shed blood as do males, but when he discovers that this blood links him to his father.Keywords: drug trafficking, masculinities, machismo, learning, formation.
