Lovejoy Convocation

 For lectures or talks with limited appeal for the community we may be unable to publicize your event with an individual press release but you may contact the local media at the numbers below.

(Events that might fall in this category include Women's Studies Colloquia or Science, Technology and Society Colloquia, departmental lectures, lectures by academics whose specialties are best understood by other academics, some Spotlight events and others.) Other events (i.e. bookstore promotions and summer programs) will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis for their value to Colby's communications goals.
