Educational Studies: Distinguished Bowen Lecture

Join the School of Educational Studies for Magic Monday—a monthly event dedicated to fellowship and enrichment with current students, faculty and alumni.

This Month’s Highlight:
We are hosting the 41st Annual Distinguished Bowen Lecture, honoring Dr. Howard Bowen and featuring some of the most respected scholars in higher education.

This year, we're thrilled to welcome Professor Maenette K.P. Ah Nee-Benham as our 2024/2025 Distinguished Bowen Lecturer. Her talk, "In Our Mothers’ Voice: Ulu aʻe ke welina a ke aloha," will weave together ancestral stories, professional knowledge, and community-based action. Dr. Benham will explore the concept of “nānā i ke kumu” (looking to the source/finding your truth) as a powerful approach to navigating challenges and creating spaces for dynamic learning and growth.

This presentation will offer valuable insights into how cultural knowledge can guide us in living and leading with balance, justice, and grace. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance both your personal and professional excellence.
