Each semester, the East Asian Studies Program invites several prominent scholars from a variety of disciplines to present research talks in the East Asian Studies Speaker Series. We welcome faculty, graduate students, undergraduates, and others to join us for these talks. This semester, all talks will be in person (although the location will vary).
