Established in March 2001, the programs range in time from 45 minutes to 3 hours, and address a broad range of topics, including the humanities, current affairs, college life, and the natural sciences. Some of the more notable programs include an hour long lecture by Professor Edward O. Wilson on the relation of science and the humanities, a three-hour program on the state of the global environment,a 50-minute talk by Professor Diana Eck on Shiva, and finally, a talk on the legacy and genius of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.
