NERWHA’s 2020 Spring Symposium “Holy War in World History” originally scheduled to take place on Sunday, April 5 at Salem State University has been postponed.

March 9, 2020

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

In light of the expanding COVID-19 epidemic, prudence dictates that we postpone the planned NERWHA symposium. We will return to Holy War in World History in Spring 2021. Please keep yourselves safe.

Registration fees can be refunded, applied toward the next NERWHA symposium, or offered as a donation. David Burzillo, NERWHA Treasurer, will contact registrants directly about their wishes.

Meanwhile, NERWHA will continue to plan activities for the time when this crisis will have passed. Let us hope it is soon.

Wishing you all good health,

al andrea, NERWHA Secretary
