Dear History Graduate Students,

I am passing on this invitation to you to attend the Spring lecture 
series at the German Historical Institute downtown (just off Dupont 
Circle).

Dear Mack,

I am writing to you because of your position as Graduate Program 
Director. The German Historical Institute is interested in reaching 
out to graduate students in history especially across the Washington 
Metro Area. As you may be aware, the GHI is an independent institute 
here in Washington, dedicated to the promotion of historical research 
in the United States and in Germany. We offer a variety of lectures, 
seminars and grants as well as a publicly accessible library that may 
be of interest not only to graduate students with interests in German 
and European history, but beyond that to those with wider 
transatlantic, transnational, comparative or global research agendas. 
For example, the GHI currently displays an exhibition on African 
American Civil Rights and Germany and our lecture series this spring 
will look at the global financial crisis from an historical 
perspective.

Bringing together young scholars with a variety of interests is one 
of the missions of the GHI and we would like to ask if you would be 
willing to share information about the GHI's upcoming events with 
your graduate students (and, of course, interested faculty). Would 
you, for example, be able to distribute event invitations by email or 
display posters or flyers a few times per semester?

Attached you will find an invitation to our upcoming Spring Lecture 
Series Financial Crises: How They Changed History that we would like 
to extend to your students and faculty. For more information about 
the GHI, please visit <http://www.ghi-dc.org/>http://www.ghi-dc.org/ 
or contact me with any questions or comments.

Sincerely,

Jan Logemann
