The Hoover Applied History Working Group hosted its virtual Winter 2026 Symposium on Thursday, February 12, 2026, 8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time. 

The Symposium theme is “America and the World at 250.” As the United States begins to celebrate the nation’s 250th anniversary, our intention is to review recent historiographical developments, revisit enduring debates, spark new ones, and relate them to contemporary world order and the crises facing America at home and abroad.
