For two years after completing his degree , he was a National Research Council Fellow at the California Institute of Technology . " Though they began by discussing all manner of subjects in Weeks ' little room eventually the conversation always turned to religion : the theological student took a professional interest in it , and Hayward welcomed a subject in which hard facts need not disconcert him ; when feeling is the gauge you can snap your angers at logic , and when your logic is weak that is very agreeable . When the great day arrived , his soul deeply moved by all the preparation , by the books he had studied and above all by the overwhelming influence of the head , he could hardly contain himself for fear and joy . They were having a tennis party at the vicarage in the afternoon and Miss Wilkinson put on her best dress . He looked at the people walking about and envied them because they had friends ; sometimes his envy turned to hatred because they were happy and he was miserable . Philip had received little kindness in his life , and he was touched by the American 's desire to help him : once when a cold kept him in bed for three days , Weeks nursed him like a mother . A few congressional offices were able to continue to respond to constituents ' e-mail and postal mail during the last few weeks , even though they were locked out of their offices . In addition , students are strongly advised to repeat any course in which they received a grade of D or D + because they are unlikely to succeed in the next course . It looks as if they were victims of a conspiracy ; for the books they read , ideal by the necessity of selection , and the conversation of their elders , who look back upon the past through a rosy haze of forgetfulness , prepare them for an unreal life . He was developing a sense of humour , and found that he had a knack of saying bitter things , which caught people on the raw ; he said them because they amused him , hardly realising how much they hurt , and was much offended when he found that his victims regarded him with active dislike . They wandered up to the castle , and sat on the terrace that overlooked the town . In between the programs running in the northern and southern hemispheres , he found time in 1978 and 1979 to help initiate in Germany , with Professor Peter Roquette , a similar mathematics program at the University of Heidelberg.Students who have completed the Ross summer program are now scientists , teachers , and university professors ( four are currently on the faculty at OSU ) , others are researchers in industrial settings . Mr. Nixon , the solicitor , asked him to spend a Sunday at Hampstead , and Philip passed a happy day with a set of exuberant strangers ; he ate and drank a great deal , took a walk on the heath , and came away with a general invitation to come again whenever he liked ; but he was morbidly afraid of being in the way , so waited for a formal invitation .

He was no prude and could laugh as well as anyone at the witty immorality of a farce at the Palais Royal , but here was nothing but filth . Philip had a fiendish instinct for discovering other people 's raw spots , and was able to say things that rankled because they were true . The Vicar of Surle , a tiny hamlet by the sea , was to be seen every evening in the public house a stone 's throw from his vicarage ; and the churchwardens had been to Mr. Carey to ask his advice . He had matriculated at the university and attended one or two courses of lectures . The instructional side of the program is funded by the University . His sleep had been restless ; but when he stretched his legs and looked at the sunshine that slid through the Venetian blinds , making patterns on the floor , he sighed with satisfaction .
