History Undergraduate Advisory Board
The History Undergraduate Advisory Board is a student-run organization dedicated to strengthening the relationship between History Majors and Penn History Faculty. We sponsor a variety of events including student-faculty lunches, history major happy hours, "dinner & a movie" nights, and annual teaching awards.
The Undergraduate Advisory Board holds meetings once a month, and welcome anyone who is interested in becoming involved with the HUAB. If you have any questions, or are interested in becoming a member, please contact:
- Courtney Albini (calbini@sas.upenn.edu)
- Alicia DeMaio (demaioa@sas.upenn.edu)
Upcoming events are posted around the Department and on the Events page.
To apply for HUAB please submit the application by September 26.
