Community Outreach

The Middle East Studies Center is dedicated to fostering greater interest in and knowledge of the region through outreach to K-12, higher education, state and local government, businesses, community groups, and the media.

The Middle East Studies Center provides information about local, national, and international educational resources, offers workshops for teachers, holds public lectures and cultural events on a range of topics, and provides academic and cultural speakers for schools and civic groups upon request. Other resources on this web site include a bi-annual newsletter, a film lending library, and a local calendar of academic and cultural events.

We are always happy to speak with you, so feel free to email the director, Dr. Allen Fromherz,
