The signature program of the Regis University Center For The Study Of War Experience, the Stories From Wartime series, comes back on February , 2010. This series allows Regis students to hear war experiences directly from the veterans who lived them. Hosted and moderated by Rick Crandall, with academic insights from Regis Professors Dan Clayton and Tom Bowie, it provides fascinating insights into how ordinary men and women dealt with the experiences of war and how it shaped their lives.
The general public is invited to join Regis students in this series. Each 2-hour presentation starts at 6PM in the Science Building Ampitheater on the Denver campus. Seating is limited and the public is urged to arrive before 5:30PM for the best chance of being seated. Once the room is full, no additonal spectators can be allowed in the ampitheater.
Directions to the Science building: Take Federal or Lowell Boulevard to Regis Boulevard (50th Avenue). From Regis Boulevard, turn into the parking lots at Entrance 1. The Science building is northwest of the parking lot. Parking is limited so you may need to walk some distance. Handicap parking is available.

The
Regis University Center for the Study of War Experience, formally
inaugurated as an official University program in November 2004,
preserves the memories and histories of war veterans to deepen our
understanding of what ordinary people do in war. The Center makes
this history permanently available to students, teachers, and the
general public in an extensive archival collection of videotaped
interviews and written testimonies of war veterans. The Center's
administrative office and archives are housed in Regis University's
Main Hall. To secure its future as an important national repository
of war memories, the Center seeks funding to support its ongoing
activities. We encourage folks to consider making a gift to the
Regis University Center for the Study of War Experience to help
us keep these memories alive forever. For information about how
you can contribute to the Regis Center's work, please contact Dr.
Daniel Clayton at 303-458-4914. |
