The UBC Arts Last Lecture is back! On Friday, March 16th at 7:30pm in the Old Auditorium come and enjoy a Last Lecture by one of Canada’s most popular media personalities.

This year the Arts Undergraduate Society is excited to have George Stroumboulopoulos speak at the Arts Last Lecture 2012. The Arts Last Lecture is an annual event in which a speaker is invited to deliver a “Last Lecture” to the graduating class in the Faculty of Arts. This event allows graduating students the opportunity to attend a last lecture with their peers, as well as celebrate the end of their undergraduate studies. It is also a “call to arms” of sorts for graduating Arts students — it’s to empower them with the hope that their education at UBC has prepared them to be agents of positive change in Vancouver, Canada and the world. Although mainly directed towards graduating students, the event is also open to all students of all years and faculties.

New this year, we are looking to select one lucky student to interview George on stage at the event. Submit a YouTube video with the following information: Name, year, program, fun fact about yourself, why you want to interview Strombo and sample questions you would ask. Please email the video to Last Lecture Coordinator Andrew Lavers at aus.lastlecture@gmail.com by Jan 31st. Full details on the AUS website.

Tickets will also be on sale soon.

Any inquiries, email Andrew Lavers at aus.lastlecture@gmail.com
