(Please be advised that we require reservations because of university policy; we must submit a list of confirmed attendees when placing our catering order. In addition, we made need to move to a larger venue depending on audience size; reservations permit us to contact attendees ahead of time. And, sometimes plans change: this program is rescheduled from March 6th, when the speaker was unable to travel here because of a winter storm in central and eastern Pennsylvania – we were able to contact all 30 people who had made reservations with us!)
