Roundup: Events for the week

At Bloomsburg University

Resistance — A touring photo exhibition about a Germany resistance to the Nazi regime, White Rose, is on campus through March 30 at the Kehr Union, Multicultural Center. The exhibit chronicles the brief yet intense bloom of the White Rose (Weisse Rose) resistance movement against the Nazi regime. The White Rose was formed by a small group of university students in 1942-43 in Munich, Germany, actively fought against the oppression of civil liberties and the persecution of Jews, and demanded an end to the war. There will be a seminar on the White Rose on Tuesday, March 27, from 4 to 6 p.m. in the Multicultural Center. Students from Luke Springman's German courses will give presentations.
