Sponsored by the Center for the Liberal Arts and Virginia Foundation for the Humanities

Many students are not familiar with the backstories of Latin America's complex and dynamic past beyond the usual suspects in a world-history textbook such as the "triangular trade", the Mexican Revolution, and Simon Bolivar.  Three UVa professors expert in Latin American history are ready to explore the region with you.  After this one day workshop on 9 November at the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities in Charlottesville, you will be ready to enrich your units on Latin America.  Under the sponsorship of the University's Center for the Liberal Arts, professors Herbert Braun, Joe Miller, and Brian Owensby will delve into this fascinating region beyond the surface facts and entertain your further questions.  After a truly 'free lunch', Stephanie D. van Hover, Dept. Chair of Curriculum, Instruction and Special Education at UVa, will coordinate participating educators' efforts to build the morning's proceedings (and more) into their curricula.
