Join acclaimed writing Danny Senna on December 1 at 5:45 PM in the Newman Conference Center, Room 750 (Library building).  Senza’s most recent book is Where Did You Sleep Last Night? — a compelling memoir that traces her mixed roots: her blue-blood, white mother’s family (the Howes of Boston) and her black activist father’s family, the Sennas. In the book, she reconstructs a long-buried family mystery that illuminates her own childhood, her enigmatic father, the power and failure of her parents’ union and, finally, the forces of history. See you there!

Save the date: Thursday, November 19, 7pm, Mason Hall

Michael Sandel is one of Harvard’s most revered professors. He has just published a new book, Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do? (Farrar, Straus, and Giroux, 2009). The book and Sandel’s lectures are the focus of a new PBS TV series; hence a series of public interviews (Today Show, Charlie Rose, etc.), a major piece in the New York Times (on September 25), and a national speaking tour that includes Baruch.

Sandel will speak on Thursday, November 19, at 7 pm in Mason Hall.

Sandel’s presentation, which is co-sponsored by the Provost’s Office and by The Robert Zicklin Center for Corporate Integrity, is free and open to the public. Please come and please RSVP…
