| Adam Dahmer lectures about Celtic traditions. |
Adam Dahmer, a senior McConnell Scholar, treated us to a seminar on Celtic culture and history. After years of intensive study on the subject, Mr. Dahmer came prepared to share their entire lifestyle with the Scholars. Even dressed in the traditional kilt, the presentation covered the origination of Celtic mythology to the written language. As a freshman this was one of my first seminars, and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Mr. Dahmer spoke with such passion about the subject. He conveyed knowledge and research while engaging the whole room in a fun discussion on the Celtic culture. The seminar concluded with some traditional Irish music, played live, and a special ceremony. It is surely one I will remember!
