Past Emeriti Luncheon Talks

 

Each luncheon meeting of the UCSC Emeriti Association features an informal talk of about 30-40 minutes. Generally these are about ongoing research of one of our emeriti or of an active faculty member of UCSC that is still employed, but we have also had speakers from other UC campuses, and even from interesting industries. The President (previously "Chair") (or recently a speaker selection committee) selects the speakers and introduces them. Here we have gathered a record of our past luncheon lectures. This history reflects where we have been and is useful in avoiding duplication of future speakers, and knowing what has gone before. If you know speakers or titles not listed here please notify the President or Secretary by email (see home page, left column).
