Join us the Mitchell-Reed Community of Learners lecture "Martin Luther: Man, Myth, or Malcontent" at 12:15 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 31 in the West Library Orientation Room.  

This presentation by Alistair Maeer, assistant professor of history, and Christopher Ohan, associate professor of history, will commemorate the 500th anniversary of the start of the Protestant Reformation, which began when Martin Luther “nailed the 95 Theses” to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg. It will differentiate the various historical roles played by Martin Luther, from the concept of his seeming heroic theological role in the Reformation to his more pragmatic political, secular, and egocentric side.

Brown bag lunches are welcome; light refreshments will be provided by the Office of the Provost.
