Advisory — Opportunity to discuss with Dr. Robin Bright the benefits of reading in today’s fast-paced, digital world

The question almost seems unnecessary and yet in today’s world of online posts, headline skimming and video content, the University of Lethbridge’s Dr. Robin Bright (BA ’79, BEd ’82, MEd ’88) has to ask, Does Reading Even Matter?


It’s the title of her PUBlic Professor Series talk that takes place Thursday, March 27, 7 to 9 p.m., at the Sandman Signature Lodge.


WHAT: Media availability for Dr. Robin Bright


WHEN: Tuesday, March 18, 10 a.m.


WHERE: Meet in Turcotte Hall entrance


As many media members are unable to attend the evening PUBlic Professor Series talks, this is an opportunity to speak to Dr. Bright about her work and upcoming presentation. This is the final PUBlic Professor Series talk of the schedule.
