Thirteen Washington University Students and their Deep Dive into the Study of the Holocaust Exhibit

This exhibit offers reflections and images from Washington University students, faculty, and staff who traveled across Germany, Poland, and Lithuania in May 2016. The trip took place after a year of intensive study in 2015-2016 as part of the FOCUS program “The History, Memory, and Representation of the Holocaust.” The exhibit encompasses critical perspectives on the history, memory, and representation of the Holocaust alongside students’ first-person reflections. A video recording of interviews with students and faculty accompanies the exhibit.

An opening reception with a panel of participants will be held Thursday, February 2, 2017, 7:00-8:30pm.

Questions about the exhibit or reception can be directed to Brian Vetruba, Germanic Languages and Literatures, Comparative Literature, and European Studies Librarian.

The St. Louis Holocaust Museum and Learning Center is located at 12 Millstone Campus Dr. St. Louis, MO 63146. (http://hmlc.org/)
