The Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday will be celebrated in 2010 during the first week of classes, January 25-29, 2010 (as the Federal holiday falls this year prior to the return of students).
The planning committee is soliciting academic presentations as part of this week of celebration and service. This year's theme is: Where Do You Stand? This year's theme was selected from the following quote adapted from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr: "The ultimate measure of individuals is not where they stand in moments of comfort and convenience, but where they stand at times of challenge and controversy.
All faculty presentations will be held on Tuesday, January 26 or Thursday, January 28 between 12:15 and 1:00 pm.
Presentation proposals should be submitted utilizing this on-line form no later than Wednesday, December 9.
Once all proposals have been received, I will get back in touch with you before December 11 to confirm your presentation time and location.
Thank you for your interest in participating in this important program of education and service.
