TJ’s 30th Anniversary Celebration

 

AN EVENING WITH DAVID EPSTEIN
We enjoyed a special 30th Anniversary edition of the Steven McCollum Distinguished Speakers Series on Feb. 17. David Epstein, author of New York Times #1 best seller Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World, and of the New York Times best seller The Sports Gene, will discuss Range, and how it relates to the many benefits of a liberal arts education.
