About the Distinguished Speaker Series
Launched in 2008, the Distinguished Speaker Series host speakers twice annually in order to connect SUNY New Paltz alumni, students, faculty, staff and community members with highly accomplished alumni, authors, policy makers, leaders, scientists, media experts, business people and other luminaries.
