The annual Poitras-Gleim Lecture, which was endowed by a gift from Ted and Kay Gleim Poitras ’53, provides a forum to explore and promote cross-disciplinary thought and communication. The Student Senate Academics Committee organizes and oversees the Poitras-Gleim Lecture and is tasked with fostering vibrant campus discussions about academic and political issues through seminars, lectures and debates. Previous Poitras-Gleim lecturers have included astronaut, engineer and physician Mae Jemison; American writer Piper Kerman; Edward Ricourt '95, screenwriter; and Dr. Ruth Westheimer, therapist, radio and TV personality, and documentary film maker.
