Did you ever imagine your ideal dinner party—with the opportunity to ask a historical figure questions about their life’s triumphs and setbacks? During Founders’ Week, you can do just that. Join Iris De Rode, historian of the French role in the American Revolution recently featured in Ken Burns’ PBS docuseries The American Revolution, as she interviews the Marquis de Lafayette (renowned historical interpreter, Mark Schneider). The Marquis will share reflections on his life and times, and his thoughts about the founding and legacy of the College that carries his name. Schneider will share what it’s like to make a living interpreting history across the country and the world. Have a question for the Marquis? Submit your question in advance. 7-8:30 p.m. • Colton Chapel • MORE
For those who aren’t able to attend, a livestream broadcast will be available. A recording of the broadcast will be available after the event on news.lafayette.edu.
