War & Society Roundtable
Page Content
The War & Society Roundtable, a joint community and university monthly reading group,
was one of the earliest community outreach events of the Dale Center and ran from
2006 to 2022. Sponsored jointly by Southern Miss’s Dale Center for the Study of War
& Society and the , the Roundtable focused on a different war and society book each month of the academic
year. A friendly but spirited discussion about the book was moderated by a History
faculty member or graduate student from Southern Miss.
The Roundtable was a great way for community members, faculty, and students to interact
while exploring topics of mutual interest. The Roundtable was free to the public
and was generally held on the second Tuesday of each month during the academic year.
