Upcoming Events
Welcome
Cambridge & Boston faculty are the majority of our guests at each Roundtable dinner & discussion of science faith & philosophy. Presentations and the exchange of ideas and experiences over superb hospitality at the Harvard Faculty Club and at the Samberg Center at MIT are critical & integral to bringing scholars "to the table" to take quality time to bring added depth to each other's personal and professional lives.
Roundtable evenings are possible thanks to The John Templeton Foundation and other contributors to The Leadership Connection such as Cornerstone Commissioning and the Sword and Spoon Foundation.
