CSW is thrilled to announce The Walrus Series at CSW, a speaker series program with prominent thought leaders, artists, and changemakers from the CSW community.
The series will kick off on Monday, April 28 with Yale sociologist, physician and author Nicholas Christakis P’11, ’13, ’16, who will speak to the surprising influence of social networks and challenge our conventional wisdom on the social sciences. The event shall be hosted by educational technologist and CSW Director of Library Services Kemarah Sika.
The Walrus Series is named after the chats in the era of former CSW Headmasters John R. P. French and Dolph Cheek, who hosted a series of informal talks with students in their homes, dubbed “The Walrus.” The name is from the Lewis Carroll poem, “The Walrus and the Carpenter,” in which the Walrus declares, “The time has come to talk of many things.”
The event is free and open to the CSW community. Limited seats available, registration required.
