RACE IN MEDIA (HSP 137H) Presentations, JOIN US TODAY

By Faculty and Staff, Students

Albion College has a history of controversial and sensitive stories that are difficult to talk about. Our projects shine a light on these stories using the Pleiad.

Join the students of HSP 137H: Race in Media for our final presentations to hear about our semester-long projects digging into the Pleiad archives to explore and explain stories of interest to our community. We will share both Digital Archive Projects and a physical exhibition, which will remain on display outside the Library Archives for a few weeks — please visit to view the exhibit any time if you are unable to join us for the presentations!

TODAY, April 23
2:30 to 4 p.m.
Library Archives (Top floor of Mudd)
All are welcome!

Pesach/Passover 2024 Specials in Baldwin

By Faculty and Staff, Students

The Jewish holiday of Passover or Pesach, commemorating the Exodus of the Israelites from slavery in biblical Egypt to freedom, begins on April 22nd at sundown and will continue through sundown on April 30th. To celebrate, Jews traditionally fast from chametz (food that is leavened) and gather with family and friends to retell the Exodus story through food, scripture, music, and other traditions at seders (ceremonial dinners). In honor of Passover, Metz dining is providing several traditional foods in lower Baldwin, including but not limited to matzo ball soup, deviled eggs, pickled beets, horseradish, charoset, celery, and matzo. Flourless cake is also available upon request for the first two nights. Passover items are placed in a designated area of the salad bar to minimize cross-contamination risk, and everything is labeled.

If you need any assistance with nutrition while fasting, please email campus dietitian Ashley Palmer (ma4063dietitian@metzcorp.com).

Chag Pesach same’ach!
