Who Was New Hampshire's Most Charismatic Governor ?

Concord – On Tuesday November 3rd at 7:00 pm in the Library Living Room, NHTI will present the next of its free public Wings of Knowledge lectures, "John Gilbert Winant, New Hampshire's Most Charismatic Governor." Winant was New Hampshire's first three-term governor under the biennial system. He went on to head the International Labor Organization and the Social Security Board, and served as Ambassador to Great Britain during World War II. But he is most fondly remembered as our Depression Era governor whose office door was always open, and who was always ready to help those in need.

Launched in 2001-02, Wings of Knowledge is an annual series of cultural events presented by the college. All events are free and open to the public. The series supports and expands upon NHTI's wide variety of academic offerings, and is another element in the college's expanding community college mission. Subsequent events in the series will include:

• The Renaissance of the Apprentice-trained Midwife in North America, with Carol Leonard - December 1, 2009
• Celebration of National Engineers Week, co-sponsored by the NHTI Architectural Engineering Technology Club - February 16, 2010
• Is There An Asian Longhorned Beetle in Your Garden?, with John Weaver - March 2, 2010
• Culture in Many Societies: NHTI foreign students share insights of home and culture - April 6, 2010
