Presentation by Holocaust survivor Eva Schloss at Viterbo University Students in the Crossroads Program and some members of the Diversity Club had the privilege of attending a presentation by Holocaust survivor Eva Schloss at Viterbo University. Eva personally knew Anne Frank as a young girl. She shared what Anne was like as a young girl, the experience of having to be in hiding from the Gestapo and then being betrayed, as well as her own personal tragedy in losing her father and brother. Students came away with a greater appreciation of what it took to survive during that terrible time period.
