Each semester, Oldenborg collaborates with faculty and invites noted scholars, writers, activists, and professionals to speak on topics of cultural and international interest. To suggest a speaker, email Oldenborg co-directors, Carolina De la Rosa Bustamante and Eileen Cheng .
Talks are added throughout the year. Check back often for updates to our schedule and sign up for Friends of Oldenborg mailing list to stay up to date on talks and events. Dining hall access requires a meal purchase; 5C students swipe in and 7C faculty/staff sign in. Community members should purchase their meal tickets in advance at Café 47.
