Please read below an invitation to a very special event being dedicated to the late Dr. Clyde Woods, Professor of Black Studies at UCSB. The event is sponsored by The Center for Black Studies Research and The Department of Black Studies.
On Thursday, May 17. at 3:30 p.m. at the MultiCultural Center Theater, The Center for Black Studies Research and The Department of Black Studies will be presenting the Inaugural Lecture of the Urban Studies Lecture Series in honor of Professor Clyde A. Woods, who passed away July 6, 2011. Although his memorial service on campus last August was well-attended, many students whom he mentored were away at the time and this is also their opportunity to pay tribute to Professor Woods.
Woods' close friend and colleague, Professor Laura Pulido, will be giving the keynote talk, "Bridging the University and Community Through Popular Education." The program will start at 3:30 to be followed with a reception in the MultiCultural Center Lounge. We hope you will be able to attend.
