About the seminar:

The Newberry Library Undergraduate Seminar is a team-taught interdisciplinary course that is open to undergraduates from four Chicago-area universities (DePaul, Loyola, UIC, and Roosevelt).  Its goal is to enable the participating students to take part in an intensive classroom experience that will culminate in the preparation of an independent research project.  This project will draw on the Newberry Library’s unparalleled collections on the history and culture of Europe and the Americas. Students in the program are assigned individual study areas at the Newberry and are encouraged to work closely with the Newberry staff.

This spring’s seminar, Break the Chains: Revolt, Rebellion, and Resistance in the World of Atlantic Slavery, will be co-taught by Professor John Donoghue (History, Loyola University) and Professor Jeffrey Glover (English, Loyola University).

UIC English majors are encouraged to participate in the annual contest to be awarded a spot in the spring semester Newberry Library Undergraduate Seminar. The topic for next year’s seminar will be announced in early fall.
