The Presidential Faculty Lecture series was established in 1987 by Dartmouth's 15th President, James O. Freedman, to honor the contributions of outstanding members of the Dartmouth faculty, and to give the Dartmouth community an annual opportunity to learn from a faculty member who is passionately involved in a significant area of specialized research.
A complete list of speakers who have been selected to give a Presidential Faculty Lecture can be found below. Check out the videos of many of the recent lectures to appreciate the depth and breadth of expertise across the Dartmouth faculty. The annual Presidential Faculty Lecture is open to the public and is publicized, in advance, on the Dartmouth Events Calendar.
