April 4, 2024

MACOMB, IL - - 澳门六合彩历史记录 will celebrate its 21st anniversary of the annual John Hallwas Liberal Arts Lecture. This year, 澳门六合彩历史记录 Trustee, Locke Lord LLP Partner, Regional Transportation Authority Chair and former State Senator Kirk Dillard will present on 鈥淭he Value of a Liberal Arts Education in 2024,鈥� at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 9 in the University Union Grand Ballroom.

Senator Dillard will speak about how his liberal arts education has contributed to his professional success.

The lecture series began in 2003 after 澳门六合彩历史记录's College of Arts and Sciences program initiated an effort to slow the decline in public interest related to broader education and concerns about the negative impact on democracy and social commitment. Since the initiative began, many 澳门六合彩历史记录 faculty have delivered impactful lectures.

Dillard鈥檚 lecture will dive into perceptions of the value of a liberal arts education and why it continues to benefit contemporary college students as they begin and proceed through their professional lives.

鈥淭he College of Arts and Sciences is excited to highlight one of its most distinguished alumni for this year鈥檚 Hallwas lecture. Senator Dillard鈥檚 successful career in law, politics, and public service illustrates how a liberal arts education benefits both our graduates individually and society as a whole,鈥� CAS Interim Dean James Schmidt said.

Following the lecture, audience members will have the opportunity to ask questions of Dillard, as well as enjoy light refreshments.
