This semester we will be hearing from speakers about how the various places they have been have contributed to their lives. We will be challenged to consider how the places in our past shape and mold our present and future possibilities.
Make plans to take a break for a few minutes each Thursday in Whitley Auditorium for presentations by faculty, staff, guest speakers and students, complimented by live music offered by talented student musicians. All are welcome!
