The program schedule goes as follows:
June 25, 5-7 p.m.: Dr. John Tully, professor of History, will discuss how the long Cold War influenced all aspects of American life. Delve into the geopolitics of the Cold War and see how it changed everything from sci-fi movies to religion.
July 9, 5-7 p.m.: Stephen Armstrong, adjunct professor of History, will explore the enduring legacy of Bob Dylan and the profound influence his music had on generations of artists. The session will analyze the critical albums that cemented Dylan’s place in musical history and attempt to answer the question, “Who is Bob Dylan?”
