McLeod Memorial Lecture features Ruth Simmons on the power of the liberal arts in higher education

Among the many principles the late mentor/teacher/administrative leader Jim McLeod espoused were the power of the personal story and the power of a liberal arts education for all. So it is fitting that scholar and academic leader Ruth J. Simmons, who also embraces these values, will deliver the second annual James E. McLeod Memorial Lecture on Higher Education, “The State of Conscience in University Life Today,” at 5 p.m. Monday, Sept. 30, in Graham Chapel.
