A very happy new year to you as we begin the Spring 2026 semester. We have an excellent o and compelling line-up of Graduate Lectures. Mark Johnston leads off with the Foerster Lecture on the Immortality of the Soul and will delve into the question — Is This Your Only Life? Our second lecture, with Jules Gill-Peterson, is ground-breaking as we delve into transgender issues and constitutional law and have our first transgender speaker for the lectures. We hope you will join us join us for these important lectures!
With warm regards,
Lisa García Bedolla
Vice Provost for Graduate Studies and Dean of the Graduate Division
