About the 2010-2011 Convocation Series:

The theme for this year's convocation is The Persistence of Memory: Perspectives on the Past. "We are all living with the consequences of the past. We are haunted by history & memory, and often nagged by a strange feeling that past events are somehow never really "over." Even though they are creatures of the past, history & memory cling to us in the present. But to live in the present, and to plan for the future, we must realize that we are all citizens of a persistent past. It defines who we are today, and although the past is a hard thing to know, we must seek to understand it."
