SPEAKER SERIES

- Part of our mission to help our students encounter Jesus, the Truth Who sets us free, is to provide quality intellectual formation. We host a speaker series with several talks each semester, as well as partnering with the Austin Institute for the Study of Family and Culture and our campus chapter of the Thomistic Institute to bring in other speakers. You can find recordings of most of our talks below.
