Hi Everyone!

We are very excited to invite you all to our next event on March 29, which will be a talk by Stacy Lynn. Lynn holds a PhD. in American History from the University of Illinois and is well-versed in Abraham Lincoln, race, women's history, legal history, and Early American baseball. Lynn will discuss Mary Lincoln and Jane Adams. We are delighted to be able to invite Stacy Lynn to talk during Women's History Month.

The event will be at 5:00 PM in the Center for Theater and Dance Lobby on March 29.
