Dear Ph.D. students, A couple of months ago I announced to the list serve an opportunity to present your dissertation research at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute. I'm writing now to announce a similar speaking opportunity at the Thomas Balch Library in Leesburg. The library has a history-focused lecture series which affords scholars the chance to present their work to a public audience. The library offers a $100 honorarium to its speakers. If you are interested, please contact Alexandra Gressitt, the library director ([log in to unmask]).
