Founders Lecture (formerly the Peggy & Ed Good Lecture)
Each year, we host nationally or internationally significant public servants, thinkers, and writers through our lecture series. This series has enabled the Center to share resources, not only with students, faculty, and staff, but also with alumni, friends, and the Greenville community. We consider this kind of partnership with the community a vital part of our mission.
