Keeping in Mind: The McCarthy Era at the University of MichiganIn the 1950s, the University of Michigan caved to political intimidation when President Harlan Hatcher fired two faculty members, and suspended a third, who refused to cooperate with Senator McCarthy’s red-baiting Committee on “Un-American Activities.” As another tyrannical government takes aim at universities, join us for a screening of Keeping in Mind, a 1989 documentary featuring interviews with Hatcher and the three men he sacrificed to political expediency: Chandler Davis, Clement Markert, and Mark Nickerson. The screening will be preceded by a pizza reception (4:30pm) and followed by a panel discussion.
