Updates from the Ackerman Center for Holocaust Studies at The University of Texas at Dallas

Annual Spring Lecture Series

Eighty years ago this month, a group of senior Nazi officials met outside of Berlin to discuss the implementation of the "Final Solution of the Jewish Question" - the euphemistic name given to the planned systematic annihilation of the Jews across Europe. This year's annual Spring Lecture Series discussed the history, representation, and memorialization of this important moment in the history of the Holocaust. (All lectures were presented in person on the UT Dallas campus.)
