  • 2026-09-18 deepen-x slice 09170700-31: SKIP — no corpus hits for TOSA itself. Boston University appears in memoirs only as an alma mater of individuals (e.g. 張啟典 in 338. 張啟典醫師的回憶, 林天民 in 61. 創設 TARSA 的心路歷程); none names the student association, so nothing absorbable without inventing history.

  • 2026-09-20 deepen-x slice 09180600-12: SKIP confirmed — re-grep found no new hits. The only other TOSA records in the corpus are a different chapter: TOSA 華大海外同學會 (Univ. of Washington, 2014) and a Seattle TSA/TOSA night-market notice (2012) — neither is the BU association; not absorbed.

  • 2026-09-22 deepen-x slice 09210500-15: SKIP confirmed — re-grep for TOSA returned only the UW chapter record (TOSA 華大海外同學會) and the Seattle night-market notice; the new Boston University mentions (Timothy Den interview, Julienne Carrots) are BU as alma mater of non-Taiwanese musicians, not the student association. Still nothing absorbable.

  • 2026-09-24 deepen-x slice 09230600-17: SKIP confirmed — fresh grep (TOSA／Boston University／波士頓大學台灣同學會) still yields only the UW chapter record, the Seattle night-market notice, BU-as-alma-mater mentions (Timothy Den, oyster omelettes), and works/index listings; nothing names the BU association. Nothing absorbable.

  • 2026-09-26 deepen-x slice 09250900-12: SKIP confirmed — fresh grep (TOSA／Boston University／波士頓大學台灣同學會) hit set identical: UW chapter record, Seattle night-market notice, BU-as-alma-mater mentions (Timothy Den ×2, oyster omelettes), index; nothing names the BU association.

  • 2026-09-25 deepen-x slice 09240600-17: SKIP confirmed — re-grep (TOSA／Boston University／波士頓大學台灣同學會) hit set identical: UW chapter record, Seattle night-market notice, BU-as-alma-mater mentions (Timothy Den ×2, oyster omelettes), index. Nothing names the BU association.
