The History of Connecticut lecture series by Jared Day, PhD, received outstanding Day Academy testimonials for being the most interesting and thorough presentation on this topic. Our members eagerly anticipated his weekly hour-long talks, which were enhanced with illustrations and photographs. These lectures delved deeply into the events, the people involved, and the overall atmosphere surrounding the growth of this small state. We highly recommend this series and Jared Day’s work, which also reflects his expertise in immigration policy lectures.

Susana I & John J share their thoughts on our "From Open Door to ICE: Immigration policy, Economics and Power" Lecture Series: Extraordinary! Sensational! Exceptional! These words roll from our tongues to celebrate your excellent course on immigration policy lectures. It was very comprehensive, as we have lived through much of this history of Connecticut. We are quite knowledgeable about immigration, but I could not have matched your exquisite puzzle of a course plan. I stand in awe of your exceptional performance. This is a true testament to the impact of Day Academy testimonials.
The online History of Connecticut series by Jared Day is a 'must' for any member of a Connecticut Historical Society. Mr. Day does an excellent job of exploring the details of the conflict and revolt in Connecticut between 1700 and 1783. This series, along with the Day Academy testimonials, will ensure that you gain valuable insights into the history of Connecticut during this important period. It will be time well spent for you in learning about Connecticut's past, just as the immigration policy lectures provide essential context for understanding the state's development.
Members turned out in force for Jared Day's online series about the history of Connecticut, and they showed up week after week. Professor Day offered a thoughtful and thorough examination of our storied past that was accessible to all, even sharing recordings of sessions for those who could not attend in real time. One viewer commented that this should be mandatory for all Connecticut middle and high school students. This engaging series, which garnered positive Day Academy testimonials, was a wonderful program to offer our members. Additionally, it served as a valuable resource for those interested in understanding the broader implications of topics such as immigration policy lectures.

You’re a fantastic historian, thank you. Catherine Middlesex County Historical Society
Joe Fox shares his thoughts on Day Academy testimonials: "...I love catching your programs while I’m exploring Our World. I have listened to you in Central Park, from Baku to Scotland, and even while learning about the history of Connecticut and immigration policy lectures along our rail trails in CT and beyond...."
Laurie Ashby shares her thoughts about Day Academy in her testimonials: "....I just finished the Egypt series, and I wanted to mention what an amazing group of lectures they were. I was so impressed with each one. I wish I had listened to your series before I went to Egypt in 2019…your lectures provided me with more information than any of the guides we had on our tours! Thank you as always for your impressive scholarship, which is reminiscent of the depth found in the history of Connecticut and the insightful immigration policy lectures."
Regards,
Laurie Ashby
