History fans! The history department is starting a community listserv for those interested in being notified of our upcoming events that we open to the Athens community. If you are interested in attending lectures, films, book releases and other events on topics related to history and brought to you by Georgia's history department, please send your first and last name and email to history@uga.edu and we'll add you to the listserv being created.
