The Common Hour The Common Hour is dedicated to fostering inquiry and conversation across the campus community about pressing issues and big questions. Honorable Leadership The theme for the Fall 2022/Spring 2023 Common Hour is Honorable Leadership. We are excited to share the schedule for the Spring 2022 Common Hour series with the sub-topic, Access to Healthcare. We will explore what that means by digging into a different issue each month, and engaging with speakers that bring diverse perspectives and experiences.
