April 10 — Brown Bag Discussion with…Sanford Zale

“Long Live Denis Diderot”

About this discussion: In honor of the tercentenary of his birth, Sanford Zale will argue, in five parts — introduction, narration, proofs, refutation, peroration — that the French Enlightenment intellectual Denis Diderot (1713-1784) wanted to be and was our friend, and that we, too, should be his.

New Website!

We are launching a new website this week on Tuesday, March 19th. While it might take a little adjusting mid-semester, our hope is that it will be easier for you to find the information you need and succeed on your research projects. If you have any questions or run into any problems don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to help. And if you have any feedback on the new site we'd love to hear it!

March is Women's History Month

We will also have pins to give away with pictures of women on them.Check out the Women's History Project website at:www.nwhp.org for more resources.
