I dunno. Does the University of Portland Vice-President of Academic
Affairs do affairs? Social? Extra-marital? (I once knew a young asst.
prof. who had had an affair with the vice president of academic affairs
as an undergraduate.)
Evelyn Moscow-Froehlich, which I understand to mean Evelyn Moscow-Merry, was from Des
Moines, which means "Of the monks."
If Des Moines is really "De Moine", why is Des Plaines Illinois "Des
Plains"?
