New History Lab: You know when you’ve been pinked!

A big pink welcome from the New History Lab technicians.

The NHL is the postgraduate workshop at the University of Leicester and is open to anyone interested in historical research. Our fortnightly sessions present a whole range of histories in many different ways with a good dash of fun thrown in. We start each meeting with tea and home-made cake, and then finish up in the pub!

Our first meeting is next Friday, 9th October, and will be in the seminar room at 1, Salisbury Road. Tea and cake is served from 4:30pm, and the history begins at 5:00: we’ll be in the pub by 6:30 at the latest. We are going to start with closure, as four former students pass on their distilled wisdom about finishing their theses or MA, submitting, and moving on. Their sage reflections will help us all think about the process of completing our studies and the process of making history. We look forward to welcoming you to the Lab!
