The NAC Speaker Series is centered on inviting dynamic indigenous and Native perspectives to engage with our campus community. A long-running series that we are proud to host where leaders and inspirational speakers from tribal communities are brought to Fort Lewis College for dialogue and learning.

A collaborative STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) speaker series invites noted indigenous and Native scholars to encourage and speak to their experiences in STEM fields.
