Curtis Blakely, associate professor of justice systems, recently visited Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS). Blakely, who collects Einstein-related items, is currently authoring a book that applies physics to the operation and management of correctional facilities. Founded in 1930, the IAS, originally housed on the Princeton University campus, served as Einstein’s academic home from 1933 until his death in 1955.  In March 2012, Blakely made his collection of original Einstein items available for viewing on campus. In April, he will again make his collection available for viewing/research in commemoration of Einstein’s life.
