Seen and Heard
"Imagine your favorite college course with a host of experts who actually sit down with you to discuss a topic in class as well as over drinks and dinner, who enjoy swapping stories with you and getting to know you. That’s the way the Alumni College works - for both the participants AND the faculty. We all take part in the exchange. That’s what I really love about being involved in these events. We all have something to say, and we all learn from each other."

--Tyler S. Lorig, Ruth Parmly Professor and Chair of Neuroscience
