Description

Please join the University Libraries for a panel in celebration of National Poetry Month.  This event will foster a discussion of poetry as a mode of expression, and of the relationship between that expression (format, content, etc.) and other elements of the human experience (culture, history, other forms of art).  Panelists will read/meditate on poetry as a means of addressing the human experience, particularly the ways in which poetry is uniquely capable of speaking to this experience.

Dr. Dan Moran, (B.S. Biology 1979),  former Poet Laureate of Suffolk County
