Wentling to Discuss Herbert Hoover Humanitarian

Dr. Sonja Wentling, associate professor of history, will present "Herbert Hoover, the Humanitarian?" on Sunday, March 3, 1:30-3:30pm.

This presentation will focus on a little-known chapter of American history.  Dr. Wentling will explore how Hoover, one of the most vilified presidents in the country's history, not only had a long record of humanitarianism but was also deeply engaged in Jewish issues between 1917 and 1948.  Dr. Wentling has recently authored, "Herbert Hoover and the Jews: The Origin of the 'Jewish Vote' and Bipartisan Support for Israel."  The book will be available for purchase after the presentation.

Presented by F/M Communiversity, the course fee is $12.  Concordia faculty and staff pay $6; students may attend at no charge.  Check in is at the Ivers Science Building lobby.  To register for the class or for more information, call 218-299-3438, email communiversity@cord.edu or go to www.fmcommuniversity.org.
