Dear History students, The program in Irish Studies, led by Prof. Covington, is co-sponsoring a public lecture this week that should be of interest to many of you: "Women, War, and Violence in Early Modern Ireland," by Valerie McGowan-Doyle. Sounds fascinating. It will take place this Wednesday, 12:15-1:30, in the President's Conference Room #1, which is on the 5th floor of the library by the clocktower. Free lunch will be provided. A flyer is attached. Best, Prof. Allen Joel Allen Associate Professor and Chair History Department, Queens College Flushing, NY 11367 office: 718-997-5350 fax: 718-997-5359
