These topics will be covered by a number of notable scholars and authors, including Scott Russell, Carlos Madrid, Dirk Spennemann, Don Farrell, Jessica Jordan, Jose Dela Cruz, Brenda Tenorio, and Lino Olopai.
The 2011 Institute will take place during the month of August. A $100 registration fee includes all course materials and light refreshments.
Registration forms are available at the council office on Middle Road and online at the council website: www.nmihumanities.org. For more information, interested participants may also contact Merced Ada at 235-4785 or mada@pticom.com.
