The 2026 Nobel Conference brought together people from near and far to celebrate and learn more about our Mighty Mississippi 🌊

Thank you to everyone who participated and attended. We're already looking forward to next year for our 63rd Nobel Conference!

This week, Gustavus Adolphus College hosted the 62nd Nobel Conference, "The Mighty Mississippi: Currents of Change." Speakers from many disciplines, including Kelly Applegate, Solomon R. David, Nick Estes, Ehab Meselhe, Nicholas Pinter, Lisa Schulte Moore, and Beverly Wright, examined the river through flood management, settler colonialism, engineering history, and environmental justice.

The Nobel Conference has connected general audiences with leading scholars since 1965, and it's still free and open to the public. Thank you to everyone who attended in person and online.
