Wilson Marks Women's History Month with Talk on First Ladies

Posted on: March 4, 2019
  • News

In recognition of Women’s History Month in March, Wilson College will host a book talk on America's first ladies on Tuesday, March 26. Wilson Associate Professor of Political Science Jill Abraham Hummer will discuss First Ladies and American Women at 2 p.m. in Laird Hall's Patterson Board Room, with a reception to follow. The lecture is free and open to the public.

The author of First Ladies and American Women: In Politics and at Home, Hummer will draw from her book to tell the story of how each modern first lady has been intimately linked with the roles, rights and responsibilities of American women.

The talk is sponsored by Wilson's Hankey Center and alumni relations office. For more information, contact Amy Ensley at amy.ensley@wilson.edu or 717-262-2562.
