Register for "WWI: The American Experience"

This seminar examines the American experience of World War I. The readings will engage participants in conversation on the rhetoric of making “the world safe for democracy”. We will look at the realities of fighting the war and what influenced the female suffrage movement along with the African American civil rights movements, daily life, civil liberties, and foreign policy.

This program will be conducted as a discussion, utilizing primary source documents as the only readings, 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.
