WUD Distinguished Lecture Series

At its core, Distinguished Lecture Series is committed to seeking and spreading powerful ideas. Through various speaking events, we aim to broaden the educational experience of UW–Madison students and the surrounding community by bringing the smartest, most engaging, and influential people to campus who encourage thought-provoking conversations and ideas. Distinguished Lecture Series is unique in that we are entirely student-run and as such, all of our programing is designed, organized, marketed, and put on by students. Participation in the committee offers students the opportunity to learn valuable skills in event planning, marketing, leadership, and to be exposed to a diverse array of people, backgrounds, and ideas.
