GSU Lecture Series to Kick Off With Mideast Events
The Governors State University Honors Program is hosting “Community Teach-In: Changes and Directions in the Middle East,” on Tuesday, March 22, from 5 to 7 p.m., in E-Lounge.
The panel discussion will investigate the causes and impact of recent events in the Middle East. It is free and open to the public.
“The situation in the Middle East is changing daily. It is important to understand what is happening half a world away not only for its impact on the United States, but because it represents a major shift in the political character of a key part of the world,” says Levinson who is also coordinator of the GSU Honors Program.
