ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥-Boulder professor to speak at

Cortez Cultural Center on Nov.18

WHO: Linda Cordell, director of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥'s Henderson Museum, will speak in Cortez on Nov. 18th. Professor Cordell has been at ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ since 1994 and is a faculty member in the anthropology department.

WHAT: Cordell will speak on "The Chaco Corn Experiment, Part I." Chaco Canyon is not the bread basket of the West today, and may not have been for Puebloans in the past. Professor Cordell will describe new research results from a long-term project that should help researchers understand where the corn found at Chaco was grown.

WHEN: Thursday, Nov. 18, at 7:30pm.

WHERE: The Cortez Cultural Center, 25 N. Market Street, (303) 565-1151.

WHY: ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥-Boulder faculty members travel to different communities all over ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ to share their research. The university is committed to providing outreach for communities throughout the state.

The Cortez Fall Lecture Series is one of many outreach programs funded by the Office of the ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ President and ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥-Boulder's Office of Community Relations.
