Longstaff’s remarks will be followed by presentations from four speakers:

A reception follows the speakers from 3 - 4 p.m. in the SEIber Café. The reception will feature various teas, sandwiches and pastries inspired by the traditional English “high tea.” This event is open to all SEI staff and the Carnegie Mellon University community. The event’s first hour will be live streamed.
