Ample time will be allocated for debate after each lecture, and a Round Table is scheduled for WED 18. Coffee and tea will be served during the debates. Provision has been made for lunch on campus for all speakers. Unless special circumstances intervene, all lectures will take place in room VIbis.311 of the Faculty of Arts.
