Nov 18    The Syrian Migration - Today's Reality, Tomorrow's Implications
It?s the biggest, most sudden, most meaningful migration of our times. It has already exposed serious cracks in the European Union, and long held prejudices among its member states. But at its center, it?s a human crisis, multiplied a million times over. Dartmouth President Philip J. Hanlon ?77 opens the Convocation to honor OSHER@Dartmouth?s (formerly ILEAD) 25 years of Continuing Education and to report on ?Moving Dartmouth Forward?. We are fortunate to have a guest lecturer, Anemona Hartocollis, a New York Times journalist, who recently traveled with the immigrants themselves. She will help us understand their journey, tragedies, sacrifices, and continuing life struggles in their new, suspicious, not always welcoming homes. This two-part lecture is FREE, made possible by the OSHER@Dartmouth endowment. To view the poster, click here: http://osher.dartmouth.edu/docs/2015nov_convocationposter.pdf
