On Monday, January 16th, OSU will be closed to remember the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This week there will be a series of events, open to the community, to honor the life of Dr. King.

Some of the events featured include a Community Meal and Readers Theater, film festival, candlelight vigil, and various workshops and discussions.  The 30th Annual Peace Breakfast will be held on the 16th in the Memorial Union Ballroom. Tickets are currently on sale at the MU Business Office and will also be sold at the breakfast. The keynote speaker is Robert Thompson, an Associate Professor of Ethnic Studies and African American Studies.
