"Battle of Chickamauga"

Just two weeks before the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Chickamauga, Dalton State President Emeritus Jim Burran will deliver a Dalton State Coffee & Conversation program titled “Who Really Won the Battle of Chickamauga?”

The Dalton State Coffee & Conversation will take place on Thursday, September 5, at 7:00 p.m. in the garden area on the grounds of the Gordon-Lee Mansion in downtown Chickamauga, less than five miles from the Chickamauga battlefield.

The Battle of Chickamauga was fought on September 19 and 20, 1863, and marked the end of a Union offensive in southeastern Tennessee and northwestern Georgia. Only the Battle of Gettysburg had more casualties during the Civil War. Dr. Burran will discuss the battle and its significance 150 years later.

Reservations and advance payment are required by September 3, and may be made online at www.alumni.daltonstate.edu/events. Cost is $10 and includes refreshments. Those with questions are invited to contact the Dalton State Foundation by calling 706-272-4473.

Lincoln's Land

Dr. Larry Cooper will deliver a Dalton State Lunch & Learn program on Thursday, August 22, from 12 noon to 1:00 p.m. at Dalton State College in The James E. Brown Center, room 105. Dr. Cooper will discuss his recently published book “Lincoln’s Land.” “One of the main ideas of the book,” Dr. Cooper says, “is that Tennessee was part of the Confederate States of America, but east Tennessee was anti-secessionist or ‘Lincoln’s Land.’”

Recently retired from Dalton State as an Associate Professor of Education, Dr. Cooper grew up in Campbell County, Tennessee, and received degrees from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, Georgia State University, and Vanderbilt University. - See more at: http://www.alumni.daltonstate.edu/s/1411/index.aspx?sid=1411&gid=1&pgid=691&cid=1497&ecid=1497&crid=0&calpgid=382&calcid=1039#sthash.8cYQkTdY.dpuf
