Gannon University's College of Humanities, Education and Social Sciences is preparing to present its Spring 2024 CHESS Speaker Series. 

The spring's theme is the same as the fall and is encouraging attendees to 'Find Your Voice'. 

"The events planned for this year will provide a variety of opportunities to not only hear different perspectives and learn new things, but also to become actively involved and engaged," said Lori Lindley, dean of Gannon's College of Humanities and Social Sciences. "I am particularly grateful for the level of interest among students to 'find their voice' by being part of the planning team. It's going to be a great year." 

The 2024 spring series kicked off on January 18 with Liberty Reexamined: The Declaration of Independence Today.
