Home Events - Gentrain Treasures of the Pharaohs

Treasures of the Pharaohs

The Gentrain Society is sponsoring a trip to the De Young Museum for the special exhibit “The Treasures of the Pharaohs.” The exhibit is described as exotic and scholarly with many treasures never before shown. Our own resident Egyptologist, Tom Logan, enthusiastically recommends it.

As you know, we have not been able to offer bus trips for some time because of the high cost. We are pleased that the Gentrain Society has prepared this trip–bus transportation to and from MPC and exhibit ticket– for $75 per person. The financial success or failure of this trip will determine whether we are able to offer such events in the future.

To secure your spot, please do the following:
Make a check for $75 payable to MPC/Gentrain (Cost shown to the right is WRONG!)

Najm Akbar

I am Muhammad Najm Akbar. Call me Najm.
Born in Multan, Pakistan, I had my initial education there.
In the United States, I have graduated twice from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, MA 1995 and MALD, 2011, and have a graduate degree in History from Fresno State, 2022. Middlebury awarded me an MA in Teaching of Foreign Language, in 2009.

Alia and I have lived In Monterey since 2005. Our children are married and engaged in their professional lives in New York.

Our biggest delight is our two granddaughters, the eldest turns four soon, and the youngest is about a year and a half old.

I remained part of the Pakistan Foreign Service for two decades and at the Defense Language Institute taught Urdu for thirteen years until 2018.

I joined the MPC pool of adjunct history instructors in 2022 and have taught courses in Gentrain, World History, US History, and History of World Religions.
