"In Whose Symbolic Shadow We Stand": The Lincoln Bicentennial at Trinity College

Join faculty, staff, and students for a campus-wide conversation about Abraham Lincoln and some of the enduring historical, cultural, and political questions pertinent to his career--from the history of  slavery and race in America to political rhetoric and the presidency.  Each discussion will be based upon a mini-anthology of texts by and about Lincoln.
