IUP Holds G-20 Summit Of Its Own

Professor Jim Dougherty, Ph.D., and students from their IUP Appalachian Studies and Sociology programs decided to have their own meeting of the minds.

All this week, IUP is having a G-20 People's Summit to talk about relevant issues with students and folks from the community.

IUP English Professor Jim Cahalan, Ph.D., will talk about his book "Edward Abbey: A Life."

Edward Abbey was a local environmentalist who Cahalan said made a big impact on our area.

The presentation will happen Tuesday, Sept. 22 from 7 to 9 p.m.

Events will happen the rest of the week and the entire community is invited.
