Last semester was a great start to a new faculty speaker series. We had an average of 22 people in attendance at the three presentations. We’re broadening our scope this semester, including two presenters with creative works to share, and two with traditional book publications. We’re also matching the title of the series, Pub Night, with snacks appropriate for a pub.
