Events

The HISTORY WORKSHOP in Technology, Society and Culture brings together History Department faculty and graduate students with scholars from across the discipline for discussion of their research. Every Tuesday at 12:15, we gather in 203 Munroe for a brown-bag lunch and a talk that begins promptly at 12:30. The final half- hour of the Workshop is devoted to discussion. The Workshop has been a regular part of History Department life for thirty years now, and provides singular opportunities for intellectual conversation and exchange of ideas. In 2004, the Workshop marked the 50th Anniversary of the Hagley Program with a series devoted to talks by Hagley alumni.

Mia Bay, Rutgers University
David H. Bell, Johns Hopkins University
Jane Caplan, Bryn Mawr College
Patricia Cline Cohen, University of California at Santa Barbara
