The Programs Committee supports the development of the speaker series throughout the year, as well as ad-hoc programming opportunities, or ‘salons’, including visiting labs, special exhibits, and curated tours. It also encourages all members to attend events.

The Committee welcomes the suggestion of topics or speakers for future Women’s Board events. Please note that as the Women’s Board supports intellectual inquiry across the University, all speakers must be University faculty.
