Memorial service for Professor Rosen

A memorial service for Professor Emeritus Jerome Rosen, founding member of the Department of Music, is scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 27, in Main Theatre. The music department, the College of Letters and Science, and �������ϲ����Ͽ� Davis joined Rosen’s wife, Sylvia, in announcing the service.

Rosen died June 20 at the age of 89.

The clarinetist and composer signed on as the university’s first official instructor of music in 1952 and quickly redefined the music program as Davis transitioned from farm school to general campus. He retired in 1988 but continued his association with the university for two decades after that.

“To the public, Rosen was the face of �������ϲ����Ͽ� Davis music for a half century, present at nearly every concert, often as not participating in it,” said D. Kern Holoman, distinguished professor of music and conductor emeritus of the �������ϲ����Ͽ� Davis Symphony Orchestra.

The program for the memorial service includes family members as well as Holoman; Jon Elkus, emeritus director of the Cal Aggie Marching Band-uh; and Ralph J. Hexter, provost and executive vice chancellor.

DavisMail: Bigger and better

Information and Educational Technology announced that now has larger mailboxes and that dozens of new applications will be added to the e-mail service.

DavisMail, which runs on Google’s Gmail, is primarily for students. The larger mailboxes, 25 gigabytes (up from 7.5) are already in place, and the migration to the new Google Apps+ is scheduled to start Monday (Aug. 22).

The DavisMail accounts list exceeds 65,000, mostly students and recent alumni. About 200 faculty members have DavisMail accounts — the legacy of a Gmail pilot for instructors two years ago — as do about 300 staff members. Most faculty and staff use Geckomail or uConnect for central campus e-mail services.

Next blood and marrow drive: Aug. 30 and 31

Last time it was ice cream, this time it will be frozen yogurt and an Applebee’s treat! That’s what you’ll get for turning out for the next AS�������ϲ����Ͽ�D Blood and Marrow Drive, scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday, Aug. 30 and 31.

The Sacramento-based will be parking its bloodmobiles alongside the Quad, from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days. The organizers said every participant will receive a coupon for a free mini frozen yogurt from Pinkberry and a coupon for a free appetizer or dessert from Applebee’s.
