WESeminars offer stimulating intellectual experiences through educational presentations by Wesleyan faculty members, parents, and
alumni. WESeminar participants rekindle their connections to Wesleyan and gain insight into the teaching and scholarship that take place at the University today.
WESeminars typically last one hour to 90 minutes. Registration is not required. Space is limited, however, and attendance is on a first-come, first-served basis. Most WESeminars reach capacity seating so it is best to arrive early.
WESeminars will be scheduled throughout the weekend, beginning Thursday afternoon and ending late Saturday afternoon. Below is a preliminary list of WESeminars that may be offered during Reunion & Commencement Weekend. The final list of WESeminars will be published in the schedule that will be available at the Reunion & Commencement check-in and hospitality site
(Office of Alumni Relations, 330 High
Street).
