November 6, 2009 Author Dot Jackson will present a reading from her first novel, Refuge, and sign books at this presentation which is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served and copies of Refuge will be available for sale. Refuge tells the story of a young woman who leaves privileged Charleston society in 1929 to travel to Caney Forks in the Appalachian mountains where her father was raised. Author Ron Rash describes Refuge as “a wonderful story about the need to find one’s place in the world – and the price paid to remain there. With her narrative gift and keen ear for Appalachian speech, Dot Jackson gives her readers a beautifully rendered portrait of a lost time and place.”<img alt="" src="http://xfruits.com/uscupstateweb/?id=45000&s_item=450933233" /> Virtual Visiting Professor: Cardner Campbell, Baylor University Tuesday, November 10 … 3:30 p.m. … Admin 116 The Department of Instructional Technology is pleased to present their fall Virtual Visiting Professor Series -- a virtual lecture series on using social media in teaching and learning.
