This we bid a final farewell to our offices in the George L. Mosse Humanities building.

In memory of all the work done in this building by George L. Mosse, John Tortorice, and countless other Mosseaner over the years, George's work desk was the last piece of furniture out the door.

This we are happy to announce the publication of "What is Fascism?", a new collection of George Mosse's lectures and the responses of his peers at the prescient 1963 Stanford Seminar.
