Jessica Michna as Dolley Madison.

The University League kicks off its 2020-21 event season with the traditional fall coffee gathering happening in a non-traditional place: Zoom. The event features a video performance by historical impressionist Jessica Michna as Dolley Madison, whose role in building a bridge between political parties in the 1800s is history that our current political leaders could learn much from. Sign up by Sept. 20 to receive a link to the presentation (it's free, though donations are welcome for the League's scholarship program).
