The
annual Merle Curti Lectures commemorate our late colleague Merle Curti,
a pioneer in the practice of American intellectual and cultural
history, as well as a beloved member of our department for nearly half a
century until his death in 1996. The Curti Lectures constitute the
centerpiece of the department’s academic year. For almost thirty years,
highly distinguished historians have presented new or ongoing research
to large audiences, comprised of faculty, students, and members of the
larger Madison community. The series takes the form of three public
lectures, presented on consecutive days, under an overarching thematic
rubric. More on the Merle Curti Lecture Series
The History Lab welcomes all undergraduates working on papers or research projects about the past. Through individual and group tutoring, the Lab focuses on honing your ability to form suitable topics, conduct research, develop arguments and thesis statements, cite evidence properly, and write using an effective process. The Lab is open Sundays through Thursdays. To find a link to sign up for a one-on-one consultation go to The History Lab Page.
