J. A. S. A. crosswords
19 puzzles by the Jewish Association Serving the Aging Crossword Class
Caleb Madison
Ian Livengood
Natan Last
Finn Vigeland
Andy Kravis
Caleb Madison, Ian Livengood, Natan Last, Finn Vigeland, and Andy Kravis have taught a class on crossword construction,
and now 19 of their puzzles have been published in the NYT.
Located at John Jay College in New York City, "Sundays at JASA" is a one-of-a-kind, college-level continuing education
program for adults 55+. Each semester offers a wide range of courses, lectures, and seminars focused on the arts and humanities.
One of those courses is "Get a Clue! A Comprehensive Course on Crossword Construction." This course outlines the basic principles of crossword
puzzle construction. It begins with basic crossword history and then focuses on how to come up with a theme, a useable grid, and create the fill.
At the end of the semester, the group comes up with one final puzzle to submit to The New York Times.
