Alumni Lecture Series

The Alumni Lecture Series is a program from the Office of Alumni Relations; alumni are asked to give a 45-50 minute presentation on a topic in which they have demonstrated a level of expertise. The monthly program affords alumni an opportunity to give back to their alma mater and share practical advice with their fellow graduates, current students and prospects.
