The Canisius All-College Honors Program welcomes Sophia Veffer, a Dutch Jew who survived the Nazi Holocaust during World War II on Thursday, September 18 at 3 p.m. Veffer’s talk, which is free and open to the public, will take place in the Regis Room North. In several ways, Veffer’s story mirrors that of Anne Frank, who was also from the Netherlands. Veffer will speak about her remarkable experiences, connect the Holocaust to contemporary events, and take questions afterward. For more information contact Bruce Dierenfield, PhD, at Ext. 2683.
