Discount for PCC staff, students for international speaker series
Photos and story by James Hill
Portland Community College proudly sponsors and supports the World Affairs Council of Oregon’s International Speaker Series. Through this partnership, the Council is able to extend a special offer to the PCC community. For a limited time (expires Saturday, Jan. 28), staff, faculty or students may purchase tickets to the 2012 International Speakers Series at the Council members’ discount—a substantial savings. Series ticket prices start at $125 (WAC member price, regularly priced at $160) or $90 (student price).
The series, which takes place at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, launches on Feb. 3 with legendary broadcast journalist Jim Lehrer and continues with Nobel Laureate, Economist Amartya Sen (March 11), New York Times columnist David Brooks (March 27) and Afghan Human Rights leader Sima Samar (April 27).
