Tickets for the Dalai Lama’s lecture at ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø will be made available starting Thursday (March 20).
As part of the university’s Global Leaders Lecture Series, sponsored by ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø’s Parents’ and Grandparents’ Fund, the Dalai Lama will give a talk at Sanford Fieldhouse from 3 to 5 p.m. Tuesday, April 22.
Thanks to the generosity of ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø’s parents and grandparents, all tickets will now be complimentary.
