Event Details:
Michael Alberts has compiled a detailed journal of his trip to the Soviet Union as a student in 1967, having studied Russian politics with Alfred G. Meyer at MSU. A loyal MSU alumnus, and Detroit native, he has a range of interesting photos, artifacts and memories/ reflections. This early "study abroad" experience brings together the political climate of the Soviet Union and America during the 1960's.
