Hull House: Women, Labor, and the Arts
9:30 - 10:30 a.m.

Join Carol Ng, instructor of humanities, for a presentation on how Chicago’s famed Hull House engaged women, especially immigrants, in art and craft-making in the late 19th century. [Room P103]

Barefoot Hawaiians

Why spend nine hours on an airplane? Let the Barefoot Hawaiians bring the exotic islands of Hawaii to you, just as they have been doing for audiences for more than 30 years.

40 People To Invite To Dinner – Two at a Time
1 - 2:30 p.m.

In his book, Lives, Dutch historian Henrik Van Loon describes a series of imaginary dinner parties for famous people in history, usually in groups of two. In the early years of television, Steve Allen hosted a series devoted to the same idea. So, the concept is hardly original, admits presenter Bill Haase, who offers his list of 40 people—artists, scientists, politicians, philosophers, and athletes—and then creates 20 such fantasy dinners. What would you have to say as a guest at the table? [Room A145/A152]
