Lauded as a "page-turning masterpiece," Ada Ferrer's Cuba: An American History won the 2022 Pulitzer Prize for History. The book provides readers with a front-row seat as they witness the evolution of the modern Cuba, with its dramatic record of conquest and colonization, of slavery and freedom, of independence and revolutions made and unmade. Ferrer explores the sometimes surprising, often troubled intimacy between the two countries. 

interdisciplinary panel discussion will include design chair Tim Hossler.

🛹 '93 til: A Photographic Journey Through Skateboarding in the 1990s 

Photographs, quotes, and anecdotal text capture a time in skateboarding when making a livable income as a professional skater was a rare luxury and public understanding of skateboarding was at an all-time low. It was a time when skateboarding was searching for an identity, a time before Instagram and big corporate influences. Street skating was coming of age, testing its limitations and aligning itself with a new and innovative style of hip-hop culture that was emerging. ’93 til is a captivating portal into a decade and a culture that is remembered with warmth and nostalgia.

The Hatch Reading Room is here for you to de-stress, work on projects, take a break to read, and enjoy a quiet view of campus. Plenty of open tables, comfortable chairs, and of course, books, are waiting for you up on the 4th floor of Marvin from 9 am - 5 pm Monday - Friday. 📚
