AbstractThe 48th Annual Meeting of the College Art Association of America was held in New York on January 28, 29, and 30, 1960 with headquarters at the Sheraton-Atlantic Hotel (formerly McAlpin, see our previous issue, XIX, 2, for preliminary program). Slightly over 1000 persons registered, and the Society of Architectural Historians, meeting jointly reported 200 registrations, making a total of over 1200, the largest yet recorded. They came from 43 states including Hawaii, many members were from Canada and a few from other parts of the world. 229 schools, colleges and universities sent representatives, also 7 libraries, 30 museums, and 14 galleries. Unfortunately, the lobby outside the lecture rooms was utterly inadequate for the large crowds, which caused frequent noisy interruptions of the speakers and general confusion. The “slave market” was brisker than ever. Multitudes gathered in corridors, lecture rooms, elevators, bars—everywhere except the business meeting, which as usual was sparsely attended.
