Redoubtable Dons’ Spring Talks

Mark Your Calendars

The Dons, now in their 25th year, are cross-disciplinary gathering of faculty who share scholarly interests or works in progress in a non-specialized way with academics from accounting to zoology.  One hope is to make our large campus smaller and its collegiality stronger.

You are welcome to any or all of the spring talks listed below–and welcome also to volunteer to give a talk yourself. Attend once and you’ll be a life member.

All meetings begin at 3:30 p.m. on the following Fridays at the University Club in the TU Marriott, where a good bar combines bracing spirits with spirited talk.

March 28 – Nicole Dombrowski Risser, History  “The Politics of Protection: French Refugee Rights under German Occupation, 1940-1945”

April 18 – Mike Korzi, Political Science  “So Great Was the Demand for the Candidate: William Howard Taft and the Election of 1908” a sabbatical talk

May 2 – Peter Lev, Electronic Media and Film  “Twentieth Century Fox: The Zanuck-Skouras Years, 1935-1965” which is also the title of Dr. Lev’s latest book published in 2013.
