The Lakeland event will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oct. 4. It is being organized by Charlie Krebs, Lakeland assistant professor of theater and speech.
The event will include a mix of live presenters and a screening of TED Talks videos. Potential speakers can submit proposals here. The inviting presentations “that challenge us to explore new perspectives about ourselves and about the world around us.”
