12 minds, 12 Harvard Graduate Schools, 84 minutes to change how you see the world.
About this Event

Presented by the Harvard Graduate Council, Lectures That Last is an interdisciplinary evening featuring one professor from each of Harvard's 12 graduate schools — each delivering a single, focused 7-minute talk on the one idea that has shaped their thinking or work.

Building on the incredible success of the inaugural 2025 event, this year brings together brilliant minds across disciplines for an evening of bold ideas, unexpected connections, and conversations that last long after the lights come up. Come ready to connect, learn, and share in a friendly, lively atmosphere.

🎓 FREE for Harvard affiliates
