Memory of Bevan, way back, 27 years ago, Sept., '80 - MIU dining hall - a few days before or after he became MIU President, and before Kingsley Brooks as Bevan's assistant became attached at the hip to Bevan - before Bevan had an entourage. Late in the lunch hour, with about 1/4 of the diners remaining in the hall, Bevan sat down alone, at the far end of the dining hall, facing the diners. From half-way across the dining hall, my attention to my own meal was distracted by the rapid pace with which he, Bevan, shoveled large gobs of corn and rice into his face. It wasn't that he was in a general hurry, but a specific hurry to devour the food.....
