About the Lecture
The Alden-Berg Lecture is named for two distinguished alumnae and friends of the Department, Dr. Geraldine Alden and Barbara Berg. Devoted students of history and mainstays of the Friends of History group, Jeri and Barbara have contributed in manifold ways to the well-being of the Department. Now in its 5th year, the lecture draws on the excellence of the History Department faculty to address important issues of the past and present.
