The 2009-2010 Â鶹´«Ã½¸ßÇå University lecture series is now archived online. Art of Memory was the inaugural presentation of a biannual symposium hosted by the Â鶹´«Ã½¸ßÇå University History Center. The events were presented in partnership with the Arts & Ideas program at Â鶹´«Ã½¸ßÇå University.
Dr. Ewa K. Bacon, professor of , conceived and organized the symposium. Bacon said, “There are 26 presentations on the site. The public might find Dr. Erin Zimmer’s presentation ‘The Biological Foundations of Short Term and Long Term Memory’ interesting. Others might want to view Christian Brother Joseph Martin’s ‘Recovering Family History through Memories.’ The great thing is that these presentations are just a mouse click away.”
Dr. Dennis H. Cremin, director of the Â鶹´«Ã½¸ßÇå University History Center, said “It is so exciting to see all of the scholarly work. Dr. Bacon is to be commended for her energy and vision.
