You are cordially invited to attend the upcoming Lincoln Polaris Lecture with guest
speaker, Professor Forrest A. Nabors.
Few Americans exceed Abraham Lincoln in popular esteem. But how great was he? In commemoration
of Lincoln's birthday, Prof. Nabors will explain why Lincoln achieved even more for
liberty than is generally understood.
About the speaker:
Professor Nabors joined the political science faculty at the University of Alaska
Anchorage in August 2011. He has taught American government and political philosophy
at Oregon State University and at University of Oregon, where he also completed his
doctorate in 2011. He currently is writing a book about American political development
through post-Civil War Reconstruction.
The Polaris Lecture Series, which is free and open to the public, is sponsored by
the Forty-Ninth State Fellows Program, University Honors Society and the Polaris Society.
