Missouri Western State University’s 21st annual R. Dan Boulware Convocation on Critical Issues, featuring noted historian Dr. Douglas Brinkley, will be broadcast Nov. 11-30 on MWTV, channel 39 on Suddenlink in St. Joseph.

Dr. Brinkley’s talk about the life of St. Joseph-born Walter Cronkite will air at 11 a.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays and 7:30 p.m. Sundays. Dr. Brinkley spoke on Nov. 4, which would have been Cronkite’s 98th birthday.

The Missouri Western State University Library will also have two DVD copies available for viewing after Nov. 11.

 

The annual Convocation on Critical Issues began in 1993 as part of an overall commitment to offer enriching experiences to students while bringing together the university and the community. It is sponsored by the Missouri Western State University Foundation and held in honor of R. Dan Boulware, a local attorney and past president of Missouri Western’s Board of Regents.
