Tombs Lecture Series – Postponed
SUNY Maritime College is proud to welcome Jessica DuLong, acclaimed author of Saved at the Seawall, for a special campus event exploring courage, community, and maritime history. Join us for a conversation and recounting of the efforts of nearly 25 years ago, highlighting a powerful and often untold story: the extraordinary impact of the maritime community during the largest boat rescue in history.
This event is made possible through the generous support of the Class of October 1946 Fund of the Maritime College Alumni Association.
A cocktail reception will be held from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., offering an opportunity to meet Ms. DuLong and receive a signed copy of her book or register for the event, which begins at 7:00 p.m.
