Humanities Symposium Poster Contest Returns! Submit by November 30th!
After a brief hiatus, the Loyola Humanities Symposium has returned, with History professor Steven Hughes as director. The Symposium text this year is Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein.Humanities instructors (including Communication) are invited to incorporate discussion of this novel into their 11SP classes as a way to celebrate the humanities disciplines. Humanities Symposium Week will be March 14-18, 2011 (the week after Spring Break).
The students of Communication and Fine Arts have received a special invitation to submit to a Humanities Symposium Poster Design Contest. I encourage our Communication Majors and Minors to submit entries:
