Join us as we read the bestselling novel, The Hacienda by debut author Isabel Cañas for our fall all-campus read. The supernatural, chilling elements and Mexican setting make it perfect for marking both Hispanic Heritage Month and Halloween. Evoking Daphne du Maurier's great gothic work Rebecca, The Hacienda is a debut supernatural suspense novel set in the aftermath of the Mexican War of Independence about a remote house, a sinister haunting, and the woman pulled into their clutches.
The book discussion will take place on Wednesday, October 30 from 12-1pm in Heaton Family Learning Commons 232 or attend virtually via GoToMeeting.
*All are welcome- even if you didn't get to read or finish the book*
In honor of Native American Heritage Month, a representative from Dickinson College's Carlisle Indian School Digital Resource Center will present a virtual talk on the history and haunting legacy of the Carlisle Indian School. For 150 years, U.S. policy forced American Indian children into boarding schools to eradicate their culture and assimilate them into white society. The Carlisle Indian Industrial School, only 200 miles from Butler, was the model for the nation-wide system.
