AU_OIP_ArunGhandi_Collateral_FINAL

The Auburn University Office of International Programs will host Arun Gandhi, grandson of the legendary Mohandas Gandhi, for a lecture titled “Lessons Learned From My Grandfather: Non-Violence in a Violent World.” Part of OIP’s Year of India, this free event will take place Feb. 9 at 7 p.m. in the Foy Hall Auditorium. The Auburn University Indian Music Ensemble will provide a special performance as part of the event, and a reception will follow in the lobby.

“When we invited Dr. Gandhi to speak on campus as part of the Year of India, we knew his topic would resonate with our community,” said Andrew Gillespie, assistant provost for international programs. “But as worldwide events unfolded we realized just how important his message of hope and peace in the face of turmoil and conflict truly is.”
