The Rev. Samuel Nixon, Jr., MDiv '91, chairperson of the HDS Alumni/Alumnae Council, and The Venerable Tenzin Priyadarshi, MTS '03
I last visited Oxford about 15 years ago so it was definitely time to go back. I lucked out with the weather - it was a gorgeous day in mid-May 2022, actually too bright at first. I tried to check out as many attractions as possible but trying to navigate admission policies was a nightmare - some places required buying tickets a day in advance and others were closed even though they said they were open. One security guard told me "It's Oxford, things are different here". That is true. Next time I'll stay a few days.
I misplaced my notes, so if you know the names of any of the building, feel free to help me. Thanks.
Divinity School built 1424-90. The master-masons were Richard Winchcombe in 1429 and Thomas Elkyn in 1439. The fan-vaulting was constructed in 1480-83, William Orchard being the master-mason. The upper storey was added by 1489 as Duke Humphrey's Library; It was restored and altered 1598-1602. The whole building was partially restored, again using Headington stone, in 1660 and also repaired in 1701-02.
Part of the Bodleian Library, the main research library of the University of Oxford. All the buildings in Radcliffe Square form a group of the highest importance forming the centre of the University.
The Divinity School is a medieval building and room in the Perpendicular style in Oxford, England, part of the University of Oxford. Built between 1427 and 1483, it is the oldest surviving purpose-built building for university use, specifically for lectures, oral exams and discussions on theology. It is no longer used for this purpose, although Oxford does offer degrees in Theology and Religion taught by its Faculty of Theology and Religion.
The ceiling consists of very elaborate lierne vaulting with bosses (455 of them), designed by William Orchard in the 1480s.
The building is physically attached to the Bodleian Library (with Duke Humfrey's Library on the first floor above it), and is opposite the Sheldonian Theatre where students matriculate and graduate. At the far end from the Bodleian Library entrance, a door leads to Convocation House (built 1634–7)

the boundaries are continuously tested ~ the thin line of one's own mask is between divinity/graceful, humane and inhumane and we all like to be in all the three with varying degrees based on our clarity of life.

The burial chamber of King Tut is the grandest room within the entire tomb. This room was colored a vibrant yellow with paintings of Tutankhamun (King Tut) in various representations. The burial chamber walls have been divided up into four regions known as the northern wall, eastern wall, southern wall, and western wall. Each one of these walls has different depictions of the pharaoh ranging from his death to his afterlife journey.

Pretty significant changes are afoot in the Early Access build of Divinity: Original Sin 2, which has been updated today to version 3.0.15.252.
Divinity
2 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
pinch salt
1/2 cup light corn syrup
2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup pecans, chopped
Combine sugar, water, salt, and corn syrup in a 3-quart saucepan; cook over medium heat, without stirring, to hard ball stage (260 degrees F, 125 C). It will be boiling rapidly for about ten minutes to reach this temperature (Time depends on the BTU output of your stove). Remove from heat.
Beat egg whites (at room temperature) in a large mixing bowl until stiff peaks form. Pour hot sugar mixture in a very thin stream over egg whites while beating constantly at high speed of an electric mixer. Add vanilla, and continue beating just until mixture begins to hold its shape (3 minutes). Stir in pecans and spread on foil that's been stuck to the counter with a bit of water underneath. Let cool 1 hour and slice into squares with a butter knife. Let sit overnight and transfer to wax paper lined air-tight tins in the morning.
