Emeriti faculty get together several times per year for “First Thursdays” events. Activities include lectures and talks, luncheons, workshops, book discussions, and field trips.
On the first Thursday of each month, when school is in session, local emeriti gather to listen to research talks, presentations about the College, and reflections on current events; participate in discussions and enjoy good cheer. Get-togethers take place in the London Room, Thomas Hall. All members of the community are invited to attend.
