BATAVIA, NY (08\/22\/2025) The Fall 2025 Historical Horizons Lecture Series, sponsored by the GCC History Club, returns for the fall semester with two great speakers. Both events begin at 7 p.m. and are FREE<\/strong> and open to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Derek Maxfield<\/strong>, GCC associate professor of History, will be presenting “Dr. Benjamin Rush, America’s Forgotten Founding Father<\/em>” on September 3, 2025 in room T119<\/strong> in the Conable Technology Building. One of the most fascinating men to sign the Declaration of Independence in 1776, Dr. Benjamin Rush, nevertheless is often the forgotten founding father. Educated in Europe, Rush was one of the most educated men in America. His medical practice would be one of the most robust in Philadelphia – though his practices have been controversial. One of his greatest contributions was pioneering treatment for mental illness. Come hear about this remarkable man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tom Rivers<\/strong>, editor of Orleans Hub, will be presenting “Orly the Ox and Orleans County Anniversary<\/em>” on November 5, 2025 in room T102<\/strong> in the Conable Technology Building. Orleans County’s new mascot, Orly the Ox, has made a splash during anniversary celebrations and has been a visible reminder of the county’s birthday. Join Tom Rivers as he discusses the origins of Orly and the anniversary of Orleans County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
