November 2024

 

Greetings,


Fall is in full swing! October was packed with many outstanding events. It started with The Civil Rights panel discussion which was both captivating and informative. We also worked with The Asian Studies Series, The Africa Series, the MLCED Program, the Aməricas Dialogue Series and The Patuxent Partnership to host a variety of diverse events. Check out the photos below. November will bring more informative programs to campus.

Warm regards!
