Click in with Carolina Public Humanities’ Max Owre for Virtual Lunch With Friends and Strangers: Conversations With Faculty. Don’t miss this series of one-on-one talks with Tar Heels as they discuss leading figures in history — some likely strangers, some more familiar to you — and discover new things about impressive people.

 

Summer 2021 schedule:

 

Each event starts at 12:00 noon and runs approximately 45 minutes. Details for accessing the webinar will be sent by the morning of the event.

All conversations are held online as a Zoom webinar.
