The Let’s Talk About It scholars are central to the program. An invited scholar leads the discussion at each program session on one of the selected books. The scholar’s presentation both provides a critical perspective on the reading and also inspires the participants to relate their experiences and insights to the book and share their responses with the discussion group. Scholars for this program meet the following criteria:
Have an advanced degree in the humanities;
Are professionally engaged in or retired from teaching, writing, researching, or studying in the humanities;
Are enthusiastic about the LTAI project;
Are willing to devote the time necessary to develop an excellent presentation.
