Welcome back to school, history students and faculty! Hopefully, the beginning of the year finds you all well and that you had fruitful and relaxing summers. The 2012-2013 school year is shaping up to be fun and exciting and there's plenty of fantastic things going on in the history department this year already!
First, and most important, please extend a very warm welcome to the history department's newest addition, Poppy Fry! Poppy is a professor of African history and comes to join our Puget Sound community all the way from New Hampshire. We're all happy to have her here and she will no doubt fill an important position in our history line-up.
There are also many plans in the works for history department events and activities, of both the intellectual and leisurely kind. Make sure to keep an eye out in the hallways and on the blog here for more information!
