The Personally Speaking Series
CLAS IS NOW TWO NEW COLLEGES
CLAS has transitioned into the College of Science and the College of Humanities & Earth and Social Sciences.
Thank you for your patience as we sunset this website over the 23-24 academic year.
The Personally Speaking series was created as an opportunity for the Greater Charlotte community, alumni, staff, and students to learn about the intriguing scholarly research within The College of Humanities & Earth and Social Sciences—and to interact with the faculty. Each presentation celebrates the publication of a recently published book as well as the faculty’s personal motivations for pursuing the research. Following the presentation, which lasts about an hour, attendees are invited to engage in Q&A and to talk with the speaker directly during a book signing. Look for our student and department volunteers if you would like to discuss additional opportunities to interact with the speaker or the College.
The series is hosted by the College of Humanities & Earth and Social Sciences with J. Murrey Atkins Library and The Dubois Center at UNC Charlotte City Center.
Congratulations to these faculty, who were selected by their peers to be featured during the 2023-2024 Season
