F. C. Fuller, Aleister Crowley, and the British Occult Revival" related to the occult collections at Rutgers. The conference wasappropriately held in the Alexander Library, the home of SpecialCollections and University Archives. Her article also reflectsher keen knowledge of the archives at Rutgers from which she unearthed information about Fairweather, J. F. C.
