Welcome, Graduate Students!

With these difficult and trying times, the Department of History has not been able to give our graduate students the same welcoming we do at the beginning of each fall semester. Thankfully, the American Historical Association (AHA) has produced videos welcoming new and returning students specifically for the fall 2020 semester. Below you will find links to the videos created for graduate students.

A Welcome from the Chair to class of 2024

Welcome to the class of 2024! We look forward to seeing you, whether on campus or virtually, in August, and we will celebrate the day when the whole class can convene on campus. Here in the department of history, we believe that studying the past is the best way to begin to understand the challenges and crises—great and small, political and personal--that face us in our present lives. We do so by offering a range of courses for majors, minors, clusterers, or the simply curious. Our courses truly embody the idea that "everything has a history.” Check out our fall semester line-up. And we’ll see you in August.
