Two memorial events will be held this spring to honor the life and scholarship of Professor Ngo Vinh Long, who died this past October after a brief illness. On March 17, from 3 to 5 p.m., friends and colleagues of Ngo Vinh Long will have a celebration of his life, work, and legacy during the Asian Studies Association Conference at Harvard-Yenching LIbrary, 2 Divinity Ave., Boston, MA 02138. The University of Maine History Department is helping to sponsor this event. Among those speaking at this event will be three members of the UMaine community.
