Changes over time often leave quiet remnants that become obvious once you know where to look. Take a virtual walk with University Archivist Laurie Lounsberry Meehan to explore interesting aspects of campus history that we pass by every day but probably don't know there's a story waiting to be told.

The Bergren Forum takes place every Thursday lunchtime during the semester from 12:15 pm to 1:00 pm in Nevins Theater. You're welcome to bring your own lunch. Tea and coffee will be provided.

For further information, contact Paige Bock (bock@alfred.edu, (607)-871-2217) or John D'Angelo (dangelo@alfred.edu, x2821).
