Thanksgiving Party 1998
Statement: While I was a graduate student in Ann Arbor, I was the recepient
of the kindness of a friend's family every Thanksgiving. This was
much appreciated. As a professor, I am doing the same for foreign
and other students who will not have the opportunity of sharing Thanksgiving
with family. This year, I am keeping this tradition, and expect about
60-70 students in my home. We will have a traditional turkey/stuffing/sweet
potato/ corn/pumpkin pie dinner in my home. Guests need only bring
themselves and companions (If you have not already done so, please e-mail
me so we know how much food to prepare). Vegetarian food will be available.
Program: We will meet at my home (603 Forest Ave, Oak Park IL). at 12.00
pm. We will have a Thanksgiving meal followed by a reading of the
historic Plymouth Plantation documents describing the first Thanksgiving
and President Abraham Lincoln's Thanksgiving Proclaimation. We have
games of darts, table tennis and various board games. Map
to my home (PDF format).
