This Lecture Series provides Dr. Greenidge with an opportunity to share his insights with a wide hemispheric audience, regional diplomatic core, regional institutional leadership and members of the public in the presence of the Arthur family, invited friends and colleagues. At the same time, the Lecture Series will be a unique opportunity for us within the University Community to unite a wider regional public.
