THE 2021 IRBY B. BROWN OPENING LECTURE:

Ms. Kan’s lecture is followed by a panel discussion moderated by Dr. Martha Merritt (UR Dean of International Education), featuring Rose Nan-Ping Chen, President of The Rose Group, Alex Nyerges (Director, Virginia Museum of Fine Art) and Dr. Betty Neal Crutcher (Presidential Spouse and Cross-cultural Mentor), and will include a Q&A session.
