Summer History Classes from UCLA
Across countries and centuries, Freemasonry has shaped governments and societies. But until recently, only limited academic research and coursework was devoted to the subject.
That changed in 2008, when the Grand Lodge of California initiated an important partnership with the University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. Margaret C. Jacob, one of the world’s foremost Masonic scholars, led the development of two courses on the history of Freemasonry. They debuted this spring at UCLA.
This summer, Grand Lodge and UCLA are offering you the chance to participate in accelerated versions of those courses.
The cost is only $60 for the 3 week course!!
Join Dr. Natalie Bayer and Matthew Crow as they explore Freemasonry’s
• impact on European and American history from the Enlightenment through today
• role in the early development of modern thought, culture and politics
