Martin Lecture Series

Overview

When Raymond Castle retired in 1994, the Castle lecture series was terminated, and was replaced in a limited way by the Barbara and Dean Martin Seminar Series. These lectures, too, were designed to provide an opportunity for a diverse group of outstanding persons. At the outset, a guarantee of funding for five years was promised, but the program was successful and continued beyond the five-year program. The committee has made a Endowed Lecture committee of the department.
