The Sweet Singer of Michigan Salutes the Public

This year Poetaster Julia A. Moore's first book of verse, The Sentimental Song Book, was published in Grand Rapids, and quickly went into a second printing. A copy fell into the hands of one James F. Ryder, a Cleveland, Ohio, publisher who recognized its awful majesty and soon republished it under the title The Sweet Singer of Michigan Salutes the Public. Ryder sent out numerous review copies

We live in an exciting time for science, both happening within Imperial and outside it. Our chemists and mathematicians are harnessing the power of automation and machine learning in new AI Hubs based across the UK and within White City. Our physicists are developing the next-generation of metamaterials, and embarking on bold experiments to uncover new fundamental science. Meanwhile, the work of our environmental and life scientists seek to address the most pressing challenge of our age: climate change and its impacts on human society.

The research that many of you have done throughout your degree has proven to be even more critical in times like these. You have cultivated skills that will not only serve you well in your chosen fields but also enable you to address the challenges of our time.

Witnessing your achievements and hunger as young people in science has filled me with the utmost confidence that the future is in good hands.

The UK government’s decision to boost Imperial’s funding for its Centres for Doctoral Training is testament to the high-caliber of our early-career researchers, including postgraduates like yourselves. Our graduates are not only ready for research in university settings but also in industry and beyond.

I urge you to continue embracing the spirit of innovation and exploration that defines the natural sciences. Be courageous in the face of uncertainty, for it is through adversity that we often make our greatest discoveries. And, most importantly, remain lifelong learners, for the pursuit of knowledge knows no bounds.

Remember, your journey does not end here; it's only just beginning. As you embark on the next phase of your lives, I encourage you to stay connected with your alma mater and your fellow graduates. The friendships you have forged and the experiences you have shared at Imperial College will be a source of inspiration and support throughout your careers.

I hope you join me in thanking the people

Dravidian ethnolinguistic group

Ethnic group

The Tamils (TAM-ilz, TAHM-), also known as the Tamilar, are a Dravidianethnolinguistic group who natively speak the Tamil language and trace their ancestry mainly to the southern part of the Indian subcontinent. The Tamil language is one of the longest-surviving classical languages, with over two thousand years of written history, dating back to the Sangam period (between 300 BCE and 300 CE). Tamils constitute about 5.7% of the Indian population and form the majority in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu and the union territory of Puducherry. They also form significant proportion of the population in Sri Lanka (15.3%), Malaysia (7%) and Singapore (5%). Tamils have migrated world-wide since the 19th century CE and a significant population exists in South Africa, Mauritius, Fiji, as well as other regions such as the Southeast Asia, Middle East, Caribbean and parts of the Western World.

Archaeological evidence from Tamil Nadu indicates a continuous history of human occupation for more than 3,800 years. In the Sangam period, Tamilakam was ruled by the Three Crowned Kings of the Cheras, Cholas and Pandyas. Smaller Velir kings and chieftains ruled certain territories and maintained relationship with the larger kingdoms. Urbanisation and mercantile activity developed along the coasts during the later Sangam period with the Tamils influencing the regional trade in the Indian Ocean region. Artifacts obtained from excavations indicate the presence of early
