History Club

                       

The History Club is open to anyone who has an interest in history. The club organizes fundraisers, trips to local historical sites, movie nights, and guest speakers. IUP's History Club meets on a weekly basis to hold events or discuss upcoming ones, have fun, and find out what's new in history. The club's advisors are Dr. Gary Bailey and Dr. Steven Schwamenfeld.

We meet in Keith Hall, room 231, at 6:30 every Tuesday night. Join anytime! For more information, email Amber DeBardelaben.
