History Student Council Info Meeting: Oct 12 at 11:45 AM
There's Pizza!
History Student Council Info Meeting
Join us in Fine Arts North 533
Tuesday October 12th
11:45 AM-1:00 PM
Help create plans for field trips, fun events, and be more involved with UMBC's History Department.
The word 'pizza' was first documented in 997 CE in Gaeta. Serving pizza at History Student Council meetings illustrates the way pizza has changed over time. Therefore, attending the History Student Council and eating pizza counts as history research...alas, though we are scholars, it doesn't count as scholarly history research. Just fun, delicious research.

Sep 24 12 PM Guest Instructor Series: Dr. Denise Meringolo
Uncovering Histories of a Social Justice in Public History
Radical Roots: Uncovering Histories of a Social Justice in Public History
Historic sites, museums, archives, and monuments are neither neutral nor objective. Many were established to strengthen tradition, reinforce the cultural authority of elites, and inhibit change. Today, these sites have become the focal point of protest, symbols in a larger fight for inclusiveness and equality. In this online talk, Dr. Denise Meringolo identifies different, less well-documented forms of public history practice, drawing attention to individuals who understood collecting, preserving, analyzing, and interpreting the past as entirely compatible with--even necessary for--productive political discourse, and embraced the potential of their work to promote social justice.
To join the online meeting, hosted through the Albert O. Kuhn Library & Gallery, follow the link:
