The College of Liberal Arts is proud to sponsor the Mitten Professorship Lecture Series. This year the College is excited to present Dr. Peggy Spitzer Christoff, who is a researcher, teacher, and program administrator with specialties in U.S.-China relations and women?s history. Dr Christoff will speak on ?Looking for Asia in all the Wrong Places: How Ten U.S. States found Asia? from 7:00 to 9:00 pm, Tuesday, November 30, 2010 in room 4110 of the new Liberal Arts Building.
Dr. Christoff has developed programs for the East-West Center, Library of Congress, and Carnegie Endowment for International Peace; and is the author of Tracking the Yellow Peril: The INS and Chinese Immigrants in the Midwest. Her current research deals with women?s roles in US-Asia relations under two projects, ?Speaking About China: Olive Wakefield Lindsay as Missionary and Public Orator? and ?Precursors, Progressives, and Challengers: Women in America?s Relationship with Asia, 1820-1960?.
