“Why Should I Join Learned Societies;” “Marriage and Citizenship”

“Why Should I Join Learned Societies — AHA, OAH, LASA, MESA, NCPH — Even Though I Now Can Get Their Journals Free?” This brown-bag talk will be held Wednesday, May 18 at noon in HSSB 4041.

Kerber is part president of the American Historical Association, the Organization of American Historians, and the American Studies Association, so she is particularly knowledgeable about this topic.

Kerber will be giving another talk later this afternoon at the IHC (4 pm, McCune Conference Room).

The topic of that talk will be “What the Founders Didn’t Change: Marriage and Citizenship in the U.S. from 1776 to the Present.” This talk is part of the IHC Critical Issues in America series, which this year focuses on “Marriage: Race, Sex, and Citizenship.”
