Dr. Jennifer G. Illuzzi, associate professor of history, and Dr. Arthur P. Urbano Jr., associate professor of theology, discuss their research on the Jewish alumni who enrolled during Providence College’s early history. The College welcomed these students despite the prejudice they faced at other institutions. They also talk about the forthcoming documentary based on their work, "Sons of Providence: The Jewish History of Providence College, 1917-1965." Illuzzi and Urbano will present their findings and screen a preview of Sons of Providence at 5 p.m. Thursday, March 30 in Harkins Hall’s Barnini Room.
