Originating in 1953, the Brown & Haley Lecture Series became the first fully endowed lectureship in the history of Puget Sound in 1981. The lectures are intended to make significant contributions to the understanding of urgent problems confronting society, emphasizing perspectives in the social sciences or humanities. In recent years, the Brown & Haley Lecture Series has invited an emerging scholar to offer two lectures speaking to two or more fields during their two-day residency.

Please join us for the next Campus Coffee Break for the month of November.

All students, faculty, and staff are invited to come together on Friday, November 14, between 9:30 and 10:00 AM in the Wheelock Student Center, Rasmussen Rotunda.

Join SIP late night events and the Next Gen Salmon Interns to watch a screening of the 2024 documentary FISH WAR. "When the state of Washington made it illegal for tribes to fish for salmon in their usual and accustomed places, it was a declaration of war. FISH WAR follows the tribes' fight to exercise their treaty-reserved fishing rights. A landmark court case in 1974 would affirm the tribes’ treaty rights and establish them as co-managers of the resource, but the fate of salmon in the Pacific Northwest still hangs in the balance."

Prizes and free pizzas accompany trivia and other spooktastic moments precede the screening of Scream at 7:30 p.m.
