Description of Lecture

Armstrong State University will host a free lecture by Dr. June Hopkins, a professor in the History Department. The lecture will explore how middle-class, educated women entered into the public sphere using the settlement house as a gateway institution. Although the emphasis was on Americanizing their immigrant neighbors, Hopkins will discuss how these women found a political voice and influenced social policies. Hopkins’ research interests include welfare history, the Great Depression and World War II. Hopkins has a Ph.D. in History from Georgetown University.
