Dominican University hosts lecture by Congressman Danny K. Davis

River Forest-Dominican University will host Congressman Danny Davis, representative from Illinois' 7th Congressional District, for a lecture on the effects of the presidential election and U.S. policies on Africa.

The lecture will be held on Thursday, November 8, from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. in the Bluhm Lecture Hall, Room 108, Parmer Hall, on Dominican's Main Campus, 7900 West Division Street, River Forest.

Davis has represented the 7th Congressional District of Illinois since 1996. He currently serves on the Oversight and Government Reform Committee and on the Homeland Security Committee.

The lecture is sponsored by Dominican's Black World Studies program. The Black World Studies major provides students with a multicultural and international education. Part of Dominican's interdisciplinary studies, the program draws from several disciplines including social sciences, natural sciences, humanities, fine arts and education.
