Introduction
Students who join Past Masters, a student history club on campus, engage in a wide variety of activities focused on history. There have been movie festivals, travel to historic sites, lecture series, student tutoring, service activities, and a host of other events determined by the members each year. The Past Masters club works closely with the campus branch of the national history honorary society, Phi Alpha Theta. It is free to join, and is open to all students, regardless of major!
Regular Meetings
The Past Masters Club meets the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of each month when school is in session, from 5-7pm in LARC109 (the auditorium). Our last regular meeting of the semester will be on March 20. The club also maintains an office and snack shop in PSY 224. Announcements and other information can be found on the bulletin board outside PSY 124.
