The Faculty Lecture Series

The Faculty Lecture Series was founded in 1911 by Catherine Mariotti Pratt, wife of an Assistant Professor of Philosophy, who wished to relieve the tedium of long New England winters by hearing the "learned professors talk seriously about things that really mattered to them." Following in this tradition, an ad hoc committee invites members of the faculty to present public lectures each spring. Lecturers convey the substance of their special fields in a way that will be of general interest to non-specialists.
