This year Pittsburg State University is celebrating 35-years of recognizing  University Faculty authors from of all disciplines and specialties.  A reception is set to take place to highlight Faculty authors from departments throughout the university on Thursday November 1, at 3 PM and is open to the public. Over the three and half decades that the Axe Library has held this event it has extended beyond authors to also include, editors, composers and even recording artists. Learning Outreach Libertarian Jorge Leon joins The Crimson and Gold Connection to speak both about the Authors Reception and the Annual Gene DeGruson Memorial Lecture taking place on Tuesday, November 13, featuring author Merilyn Simonds.
