About the Labor History Seminar Series

The Labor History Seminar provides a forum for works-in-progress that explore the history of working class people, communities, and culture; class and state policy; unions and popular political movements; and other related topics. The seminar emphasizes works that deal with gender, sexuality, race, migration, and the social history of work.

The seminar’s co-sponsors are the history departments of DePaul University, Northwestern University, the University of Illinois at Chicago, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, The Karla Scherer Center for the Study of American Culture at the University of Chicago, Loyola University Chicago, and the Labor and Working-Class History Association (LAWCHA).

Co-coordinators are Peter Cole (Western Illinois University), Colleen Doody (DePaul University), and Liesl Orenic (Dominican University), and Steven Reich (James Madison University).

About the Religion and Culture in the Americas Seminar Series

The Religion and Culture in the Americas Seminar explores topics in religion and culture broadly from interdisciplinary perspectives, including social history, biography, cultural studies, visual and material culture, urban studies, and the history of ideas. The seminar emphasizes how religious belief has affected society, rather than creedal or theological focused studies.

The Seminar’s co-organizers are Christopher Allison (Independent Scholar), James Krippner (Haveford College), Malachy McCarthy (Archival Resources for Catholic Collections), Kevin M. Schultz (University of Illinois), Shane Ulbrich (University of Notre Dame), and Michelle Nickerson (Loyola University Chicago).
