LU-MRRL Lecture Series: A Look Back at Lincoln Institute
Join Mark Schleer, director of University Archives & Ethnic Studies Center, as he discusses the history of Lincoln Institute. From 1866 to 1921, Lincoln Institute served as the forebearer of the current Lincoln University. Founded by members of the United States Colored Infantry to provide education for African Americans, the school transformed its curriculum from basic learning skills to offering college-level courses to those who had previously been denied the opportunity.

Their 40-acre lavender farm features 14 different varieties, and they offer many events and programs during the bloom season as well as U-pick options. They will discuss how they came to dedicate their farming life to lavender and the joy and satisfaction they gain from growing this fragrant plant.
