The Robert and Augusta P. Finkelstein Memorial Lecture
October 20, 2009, 6:30 p.m.
Adelphi University Performing Arts Center Concert Hall
The Robert and Augusta P. Finkelstein Memorial Lecture was established by Adelphi University in 1981 in honor of the late Robert Finkelstein, a noted industrialist and staunch believer in state and federal support of elementary and secondary education. This endowed lecture is provided through the generosity of Mrs. Augusta P. Finkelstein, a 1928 Adelphi graduate, in memory of her husband. Her goal was "to provide a series of lectures by well-known persons recognized for their commitment to the elementary and secondary public school system." After Mrs. Finkelstein passed away, the lecture was renamed to honor them both.
The Finkelstein Lecturer for Fall 2009 will be Alan R. Sadovnik.
