African professor wants expansion of Black History Month By Austin Miller, @AMiller_DE February 23, 2015
![Kris Juul, a 94-year-old Norwegian veteran, Nazi-Germany refugee and former SIU professor smiles for a portrait while speaking about his time in Norway on Saturday, March 24, 2018, at his home in Carbondale. Juul was one of several Norwegians that were able to escape the Nazi rule. Juul later had boarded a ship with about 400 to 500 Norwegian students and went to the United States. “When I woke up, the ship was in the harbor in New York," Juul said. "There [was] the Statue of Liberty [at] about 5 o’clock in the morning." (Brian Munoz | @BrianMMunoz)](https://dailyegyptian.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/DSC_9395-900x599.jpg)
