This year the College of Arts & Sciences was happy to welcome back returning scholars and introduce new faces to the Suffolk University community. This year's Distinguished Visiting Scholars series included an exciting line-up of intellectuals, poets, activists, and performers, and featured a world premiere of alumnus Emilio Aragon’s narrative film, Paper Birds. The story follows a vaudeville troupe's struggles during the Spanish Civil War.
