Northeastern Pennsylvania is expected to get 3-5 inches of snow tonight – but according to us, it’s not too early to be thinking Spring!

Our Schemel Forum spring semester schedule is about to be posted to our website, and the classes, lunches, and trips it includes will all be great ways to hold off the winter blues until May arrives. Featured this year are:

Courses on Italian Cinema, Politics and Prose, and the Bible as Book
Five World Affairs Luncheon seminars
A bus trip to New York City to visit the NY Public Library’s 3 Faiths exhibit

For the full schedule and to register for programs, contact Kym Fetsko at 570-941-7816 or fetskok2@scranton.edu.
