In particular we would like to help students develop a deeper understanding of the place where they are living, and to present them with opportunities to engage with the material, the work and the region more deeply. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>The cafés will be held on selected Wednesdays at 5:00 p.m. in the Front Room (free coffee to the first 50 attendees!).
