Faculty Teach-In Series

Over 100 Stanford students are currently sitting-in outside Presidents Hennessy's office, demanding that the University divests its endowment completely from the fossil fuel industry and reinvest it more justly. This week, Stanford faculty are showing their support through a series of relevant and thought-provoking lessons.

We invite you to join us outside Building 10 for any and all of the following lectures.

Blue titles are teach-ins that are open to the public, while orange titles are Stanford classes which are being taught outside of building 10 in solidarity, and may have limitations regarding participation.
