This year’s Blandy Lecture will be presented in a hybrid format, with both an in-person and online track. In both formats, there will be time for renewing connections, building community, and reflecting deeply on these issues of great importance.

The Blandy Lecture and Awards presentation will be simulcast online in Spanish. All online attendees will have access to Spanish language feed.
