Register for "The Cold War in the 1950s"

The rise of tension between the United States and the Soviet Union is a story that has often been told. This seminar will focus on  Truman’s and Eisenhower’s policies on the Korean War, Soviet Union postwar
anticommunism, containment, and nuclear buildup.

This program will be conducted as a discussion, utilizing primary source documents as the only readings, and with the Professor facilitating the conversation, instead of lecturing or presenting. Registrants, therefore, are highly encouraged to read all the documents in advance and come ready with questions. Teachers will receive a Letter of Attendance at the conclusion of the seminar.
