Reflections on the 50th Anniversary of the Six Day War

Date/Time: March 29, 11AM
Place: Chamberlain Student Center 221

Join us for "Reflections on the 50th Anniversary of the Six Day War," a screening of the short documentary, "The 50 Years War: Israel and the Arabs Part 2, The Six Day War," and a panel discussion about the war with Corinne Blake, William Carrigan, James Heinzen, and Katrinka Somdahl-Sands from the Departments of History and Political Science & Economics. The Six Day War, fought in June 1967 by Israel and three Arab states—Egypt, Jordan, and Syria—was the main catalyst for the summit between President Lyndon B. Johnson and Premier Alexei Kosygin held in Hollybush Mansion, the home of the president of Glassboro State College, about two weeks after the end of the war. 

This event is part of the Hollybush 50th Anniversary Celebration and is sponsored by CHSS, International Studies, Political Science & Economics, and History.

A light lunch will be served.
