Paul Vincent Awarded Paul Harris Fellowship

Paul Vincent, Professor of Holocaust Studies and History, was named a Paul Harris Fellow by the Keene Elm City Rotary Club earlier this summer.

Paul is a more than 20-year member of the Rotary Club of Keene; in addition to his service to Keene State as a professor, former director of the Cohen Center, and former director of the Mason Library, Paul has worked to involve the College with its community and the community with its College: pushing for automating the library’s catalog in concert with the Keene Public Library, speaking at local service clubs (including the Elm City Rotary Club, Lions, and Kiwanis), establishing an advisory board for the then- Holocaust Resource Center that included community members, and much more.

It’s been a busy summer for Paul; he also published “The Voyage of the St. Louis Revisited,” in the current issue (Fall 2011) of Holocaust and Genocide Studies, one of the journals of Oxford University Press.
