POSTPONED

We are sorry to share the news that this event is postponed. On 14 May 2024, following a peaceful protest on the LSE campus some protestors entered and occupied part of the ground floor of the LSE Marshall Building. After extensive discussion, it was agreed that LSE President, Professor Larry Kramer should remain on campus. As such, we plan to reschedule this event for his next visit to North America, so he can meet alumni community in person and share his vision for LSE.

 

If you purchased a ticket to this event, LSE Foundation will process refunds shortly and will offer priority booking to you when the event is rescheduled.

If you have any questions, please email foundation@lse.ac.uk.
