"Surviving the Salvadoran Presidential Elections" will be the topic when UNLV professor Francisco Menendez speaks Feb. 2 on the university campus as part of the University Forum lecture series.
Menendez, an assistant professor of film studies, began tracking the Salvadoran presidential elections when he worked for the news media ten years ago. He will use his own video footage, taped interviews, and slides to illustrate the challenges of tracking the electoral process in El Salvador.
The presentation is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. in the Classroom Building Complex, Auditorium A-110. The event is free and open to the public.
The University Forum lecture series is sponsored by the College of Liberal Arts and underwritten by the UNLV Provost's Office. Menendez's presentation also is sponsored by the UNLV Foundation.
