Hear from students, professors, and archivists about their research, and from past and current Gerald Gill Fellows and SCL seminar alums. Additionally, attendees will learn about the Slavery and Tufts Archival Research Seminar coming this spring. All Tufts faculty, staff, students, and fellows are welcome to attend.
