The History Society is welcoming new undergraduate members who are studying history or who are even just interested in history! Our bi-weekly meetings allow history students to meet in a non-academic setting to socialize and get to know each other. Events throughout the year like a trip to the archives, documentary and discussion, as well as ‘meet the professors’ encourage history students to learn about campus resources and networking opportunities.
