Miami University Alumni - Chicagoland Chapter

Spirited Conversations is a new event series bringing Miami University faculty and alumni together for lively, thought-provoking discussions in relaxed, social settings. We invite you to join us for an evening of history, dialogue, and connection.

What does it mean to be recognized as a person under the law?

Join us on Thursday, June 4, in Chicago for a lively, thought-provoking evening at No Vacancy — reserved exclusively for our group. For $35 ($15 for recent alumni classes 2016 to 2026), enjoy heavy appetizers and an open bar while diving into a conversation that’s as timely as it is historic.
