'Voting Rights' Final OLLI Lecture Takes Place Thursday

LEXINGTON, Ky. (Aug. 14, 2019) — The final lecture in the “Summer Lecture Series 2019: Critical Thinking For The Preservation of Our Democracy” takes place from 9 to 11:30 a.m. this Thursday, Aug. 15.

This summer, the University of Kentucky’s Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) teamed up with the OLLI at Dartmouth College to livestream their 23rd annual Summer Lecture Series. 

The lecture series’ focus is to promote critical thinking — listening thoughtfully and evaluating different points of view objectively on an issue. The sessions have been structured as debates, where both sides of an issue are discussed between two speakers and a moderator.

Thursday’s lecture is titled “Voting Rights” and features Debo Adegbile from Wilmer Hale Law Firm, Bradley Smith a professor of law at Capital University Law school and John Greabe a professor of law from the University of New Hampshire Law School.

The event is free and open to the public with complimentary tickets. Visit https://ukytickets.universitytickets.com/w/default.aspx to register for tickets or quick registration can be completed at the door.
