Community members can join ONU students for a history class that rocks

Posted by Fred Steiner on Wednesday, August 17, 2016

Ohio Northern University will offer a history course that is hard to beat, or at least has a beat, during fall semester. “History of Rock ‘N’ Roll in the 1960s” will explore history through the lens of rock music.
 
The course will explore how society and rock music in the 1960s influenced each other, how rock ‘n’ roll music is a product of those times, and how rock music from that period continues to resonate in current music.
 
The class is an inter-disciplinary endeavor taught by Raymond Schuck, assistant professor of history; Dr. Rebecca Casey, associate professor of music; and William Mancuso, assistant professor of art.
