2023 Community Lecture Series
FIVE LECTURES PRESENTED BY UM FACULTY
The UM Alumni Association’s 25th annual Community Lecture Series is just around the corner. The 2023 series, “Research, Inquiry and Ways of Knowing,” will be offered on campus in the University Center Theater and online via Zoom.
Learn from five of UM’s finest professors as they explore remarkable and rich research happening at the University of Montana. UM is now an “R1” research institution, a status conferred by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education organization earlier this month. The status places UM among the top research institutions in the country. Read more about what the achievement means for UM’s future.
REGISTRATION
All lectures will begin at 7 p.m. in the University Center Theater. The lectures will be simultaneously streamed via Zoom for virtual attendees.
We are committed to making our lectures accessible to all. We are introducing a pay-what-you-can model to ensure anyone who can access our lectures can enjoy them and benefit from the knowledge shared.
Our suggested series price of $30* per attendee is a starting point for those who have asked for one. Our suggested price for an individual lecture is $10* per attendee. We're counting on you to let us know what is right for you. If you can afford to, please consider paying a little extra to help cover those who cannot at this time.
All students are invited to attend the lectures free of charge with a student ID. If you are a student and prefer to attend via Zoom, please email the Alumni team at alumni@umontana.edu.
