Union alumnus Gary Prevost, an expert on politics in Cuba, Nicaragua and Spain, will give a talk titled “Cuba After the Pope: Is the Cold War with America Over?” on Thursday, February 12, at 4:00 p.m. at Union College's Nott Memorial.
The lecture is free and open to the public.
A political scientist at St. John's University in Minnesota, Gary Prevost has published books on politics in Latin America and Spain and, in 1997, established and directed one of the first American term abroad programs in Cuba. Prevost recently returned from Cuba where he witnessed the Pope's historic visit, and he will speak on the papal visit and its implications for future U.S.-Cuban relations in the wake of the Cold War.
The sixteen-sided Nott Memorial is located at the center of campus and parking is available on campus and on nearby sidestreets.
