A comedy-whodunnit caper, German classical vocalists and a marketplace of work from student artists are among Linfield University’s public events in November and December. There will be a weeklong pause in late November as Linfield students are on Thanksgiving break, then a flurry of concerts, showcases and performances ahead of the end of the semester Dec. 13.
