Umbra Food Studies Program Alum to Present at International Food Conference

Harvard student and Umbra alumna Teagan Lehrman recently submitted a paper to the ASFS, the Association for the Study of Food and Society,the professional association of scholars who study food and food culture from various points of view. Lehrman, a Junior, studied in Perugia last semester and was one of the students who completed all three courses for the Food Studies Program. She had written the paper that was accepted for the conference, “Steamed, Sealed and Delivered” (about the history of sauces and their development with technological change) for her History and Culture of Food in Italy course here in Perugia, the core course of the Food Studies Program. Lehrman will deliver her paper in New York in June. Congratulations!
