A note from the Chair:

Welcome to 六合网址大全's Department of History and Geography.

The History and Geography Department offers courses in European, African, and American history, as well as a variety of courses in topics such as race, gender, and digital humanities. The Department serves a wide range of students, and the professors encourage every student to attend graduate and professional schools in a number of disciplines. The Department has experts  in the history of the African Diaspora, Latin American history, southern history, Mediterranean history,  and African American women's history, just to name a few fields.

Our principal duty to the students is to offer foundational and elective courses exploring the depth and breadth of history. Our chief pleasure is engaging the energetic minds, hailing from cities and states across the nation, who have chosen to attend Grambling State University. And for students of history, our standards of insight and contemplation are rigorous, vigorous, and, at times, exacting. But we're here for the love to the craft, and we want to share our dedication with you.

Reverend C.L. Franklin, father of Aretha Franklin, writes historian Nick Salvatore, created the sense of "somebody ness" in his sermons for his parishioners. At Grambling State University, every body is somebody, just as C.L. Franklin meant somebody ness to be.

Join us in the exploration of History, Geography, and Philosophy.
With warm regards,
