Next week's Global Review event will have a special twist because of one guest who will be present and another who is absent. Joel Verner, emeritus Political Science, will return to campus for the event. Verner and departmental colleague Jamal Nassar created the Global Review lecture series 21 years ago.
Admission is free.
Two International House alumni launched an international letter-writing campaign last month to secure Woldesmaite's freedom. Feb. 10 will focus on how the University community can get involved in this letter-writing campaign. The Feb. 3 Global Review speaker will be Peace Corps Fellow Jamal Nasafi, currently a graduate student at Illinois State. Nasafi will speak at 7 p.m. in the Atkin-Colby center basement on his Peace Corps experiences in Central Asia. Admission is free.
