Dr. Franca Iacovetta comes to Nipissing University -- 4th year History students take special heed

Nipissing University's History Department is hosting a special event at the end of term.

Dr. Franca Iacovetta of the University of Toronto will be on campus November 30 and December 1. On Friday at 4 pm she will be speaking in the Weaver Auditorium at NU on the subject "Policing Democratic Decency: Spies, Femme Fatales and Scam Artists in Cold War Canada." This talk is open to the public and free, but it would be a help if you would register in advance by writing history @ nipissingu.ca. Wine and cheese will follow.

In connection with this public lecture there will be an even more special event for selected 4th-year history students.

We have twenty spots available for students interested in attending a dinner with Dr. Iacovetta on Thursday evening. This dinner is generously sponsored by NUSU. The dinner will be an opportunity to interact with a leading Canadian historian.

All interested students should email Jennifer Evans at jennyevans345 @ hotmail.com before November 3rd. We will be drawing names from a hat to fill the available spots.
