Cabrini will be hosting the 14th annual History Forum on Saturday, Nov. 5, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m in the Widener Lecture Hall.
The History Forum focuses on different themes each year and brings prominent scholars to campus to share their expertise with faculty, staff, students, alumni and visitors.
This particular event is offered as a one-credit course for all Cabrini students as well. Students who are attending the Forum should arrive earlier than 9 a.m. Students will need to confirm their attendance, and they will receive a syllabus from Dr. Hedtke, professor and chair of the history and political science department.
During the Forum, students will hear from five speakers (three in the morning and two in the afternoon) on a variety of topics related to the main United Nations theme.
The scholars that will present include Jolyon P. Girard, Ph.D., professor emeritus at Cabrini College; Matthew S. Weinert, Ph.D., associate professor and director of graduate studies at the University of Delaware; Ralph Nurnberger, Ph.D., principal with GrayLoeffler; Joseph E. Thompson, Ph.D., professor at Villanova University; and Shelby M. Hockenberry, Ph.D., assistant professor at Cabrini College.
