The job in Wisconsin was the first genuine offer of an academic job in a university which I received.

When I got to Princeton I made a point of attending the Philosophy Club and listening to the lectures, but I didn't get involved in any discussions in those clubs. I guess after the first year, I dropped that.

I read one or two other books which gave me a background in mathematics other than logic.

In the fall term of 1933-34 I was on my family farm in Maine.

I think Veblen had an interest in logic.

I think that after Church got his Ph.D. he studied in Europe, maybe in the Netherlands, for a year or two.

It wasn't until my second year that I got to actually work with Church.
