What is Lecture Lounge? Lecture Lounge seeks to provides lectures from area professors and community members at area bars, breweries, and other venues. In particular, we have a mission-driven goal of supporting the work of adjunct professors, postdocs, and others who are not always properly recognized for their work, with 70% of proceeds going to lecturers.
This event is a soft-launch and will be free and different from our future talks, but please do register for a ticket at the website.
