Lunch and a Bite of History
Written surveys will be distributed to all attendees at each session. It is expected that a majority of respondents at each program will indicate they gained a greater understanding of local history, have a greater appreciation for unique cultural perspectives and interpretations, have a greater appreciation for critical historical events that continue to shape Minnesota's political, economic, social, and community environment today and will share a positive review of the program with others.
There was an overwhelmingly positive response to all five programs presented. The vast majority of respondents indicated they learned more about U.S.-Dakota war of 1862 and were able to place the presenters' talks into the broader context of the conflict.
