Temple University

School of Media and Communication Lecture Series

Dear ##First Name##,

Whether it's been a year, a decade or more since you last sat inside a Temple classroom, we'd like to invite you back to campus to hear from four leaders in the fields of media and communication.

Throughout the next two months, we're bringing to campus a top Abraham Lincoln scholar; an expert on journalism and power; a photojournalist from South Africa; and the head of one of the largest media companies in the world.

Here are the details of these free events. We hope to see you there!
