Lecture Series

Picture
To become an official SWS member, students must attend our 10-week Lecture Series, which occurs simultaneously with the Investment Project. Each lecture will be 45 minutes long, with a 15 minute Q&A session at the end. Members must attend at least 8 out of 10 lectures. For the Fall 2021 Lecture Series, the presenter will join us through zoom; however, for the first two meetings, members will gather in one room to watch the zoom lecture together.

If you cannot make it to the meeting synchronously, please let us know. We will send you a recording of the lecture and a quiz that covers the content. You must score an 80% on the quiz for the lecture to count towards your attendance.
