Please join us at the next lecture in the Max and Pearl Herman Lecture Series in Judaic Studies. 
The 2026 Lecture features author Dr. Norman Ravvin, author of Who Gets In: An Immigration Story (University of Regina Press).

Dr. Norman Ravvin will discuss this deeply personal family memoir, which tells the story of his grandfather’s struggle against xenophobic and anti-Semitic government policies, and investigates the true character of nation-building in Canada, directly challenging its reputation as a benevolent, tolerant, and multicultural country.

Location: Darke Hall, 2255 College Avenue 
Doors Open: 6 p.m.
Lecture and Q & A with Dr. Ravvin: 7 p.m. | Livestream option available
