Author Yaa Gyasi to deliver in-person lecture
Author Yaa Gyasi will deliver in-person remarks as part of the College鈥檚 Francis X. Shea Memorial Lectureship series. Named for former College President Francis X. Shea, the purpose of the series is to provide the College and community audience with an opportunity to explore the relationship between religion and literature through broad ranging topics.
Gyasi鈥檚 visit will be held on Thursday, April 21 in the College鈥檚 Mitchell Auditorium and is free and open to the public.
The lecture is made possible, in part, thanks to St. Scholastica鈥檚 partnership with the Dignitas Program, which has chosen her book 鈥溾�� as the first year students’ common read. Her visit is also made possible thanks to the Honors Program, the Women’s and Gender Studies Program, the Catholic Studies Program, the General Education Program, and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion.
