The University of Dayton Speaker Series serves as a catalyst for purposeful and critical discussion of contemporary issues through dynamic public presentations and related programming. Working with campus and community partners, the UDSS sponsors presenters who:
- have achieved substantial national or international recognition for expertise in their fields of inquiry or artistic expression;
- represent, as a series, a diversity of intellectual, cultural, political, and religious perspectives;
- and engage directly with students, faculty, and staff in ways that support learning and living in community.
