Scot Speaker Series

The Scot Speaker Series brings speakers and events to the communities of Alma College and Alma, Michigan, that provide meaningful insights into the challenges that face us.

The theme of the Scot Speaker Series for the 2023-24 academic year is Navigating Change Together.

Our world is changing faster and faster every day. Communities need to work together to navigate these changes, but we are more divided as a country than ever. Working across divisions requires understanding each other, but that seems harder every day. In the “Navigating Change Together” series we will explore the transformations our communities face and how we can work together to face them.

Tickets are not required for any of these events.
