Each Speaker in the Series will speak to the Theme AND respond to the Speakers who have already spoken. This will create an ongoing dialogue throughout the summer, and culminate in a joint panel at the
Virtual Culmination in September.
Our Theme and National Speakers will be announced and added here throughout Spring 2026!
