Hello friends of Wesleyan Thinks Big! ✨✨
We would like to announce that there will be a revival of Wes Thinks Big this spring. We would like to include more community input this time around, so please send us suggestions for speakers you would like to have participate!
Wesleyan Thinks BIG
No slides. No handouts. No Moodle. Just the most exciting professors at Wesleyan, telling us about the ideas they can’t stop thinking about.
Wesleyan Thinks BIG is a TED-talk style event where Wesleyan's beloved professors and administrators are asked to speak for about 10 minutes on an experience, a personal passion, an existential question, etc. It's a way to bring the community together outside of the classroom and think BIG!
