Princeton Presbyterians, June 1, 2012

Each year nearly 20,000 Princeton University alumni return to participate in the Princeton Reunions — a 3 day festival of lectures and panels, concerts and theatre featuring Princeton University faculty and alumni.

For several years, the Princeton Presbyterians, the Presbyterian Campus Ministry at the University presents an event featuring a Princeton alumnus. The year 2011 featured John Bogle, Founder of the Vanguard Funds.

2012 will mark the 40th anniversary of receiving my Ph.D. from Princeton University. I am honored to speak at this year’s event. This event is sponsored by the Princeton Presbyterians Campus Ministry and The Westminster Foundation. For more information please contact: twoodard@princeton.edu
