Julia Sweig Reviews

  • It was a wonderful event, and our students and faculty enjoyed every minute of Dr. Sweig's class visit and lecture. She was personable and fascinating. Her lecture was the perfect way to kick off our Cuba In Transition class. She spoke on a level that made the information accessible to the many Cuba novices in the audience.
