JSIS faculty and staff,

Welcome to the academic year 2022-23!  I look forward to seeing you around Thomson Hall.

In collaboration with Seattle Veterans for Peace and the Southeast Asia Center, UW Libraries is hosting the exhibit Waging Peace in Vietnam: US Soldiers and Veterans Who Opposed the War [wagingpeaceinvietnam.com]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/wagingpeaceinvietnam.com/__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!nafFJMVuFiNmSq7x2BPSgd1mpnx2PKIM2ai46zGQ1wP9FO6PuwFFuBOpp5IEHUnp7nkmCfRJW8UO$>. The exhibit tells the story of opposition to the war from within the US military, and will be on display in the Allen Library north lobby until October 28th.

Tomorrow, 9/28 at 10am the exhibit curator, Ron Carver, is giving a 45 minute guided tour. If you'd like to attend please send me a quick rsvp at mwal7 at uw.edu<mailto:mwal7 at uw.edu>

These events are cosponsored by the Department of History and Harry Bridges Center for Labor Studies. Find more details on the SEAC events calendar<https://jsis.washington.edu/seac/events/> and attached poster.
