The Journey from “Immigrant” to Citizen - Roundtable Discussion with local resource speakers 

Wednesday, Dec. 7 from 5:30 - 7 pm  

The Kane Forum, Edward R. Leahy, Jr. Hall, The University of Scranton 

 This roundtable discussion will highlight myriad ways in which people have come to be members of the Scranton community and “citizens” of the larger United States and will include sharing from those who trace their ancestry to the European immigration of the industrial era to more recent migration from across Latin America and global refugee resettlement. Participants will have an opportunity to engage in discussion and conversations around commonalities as well as differences. This event is offered in collaboration with the Schemel Forum.  

Light refreshments will be served. Space is limited and registration is required at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/22Roundtable
