Geneva Visiting Artist & Lecture Series (GVALS)
Geneva College invites prominent guests to campus each semester to support the educational endeavor in which students, faculty, and staff are engaged. Visitors include distinguished lecturers, well-known artists and musicians, best-selling authors, and leading religious figures. While the content of guests’ lectures and presentations may or may not be congruent with Geneva College’s stance on any given issue, the GVALS series seeks to fulfill the Foundational Concepts principle that “[Students] should not be sheltered from non-Christian viewpoints, but must become able to evaluate all knowledge critically, to gain from that which is true and to discard error.” The series also supports the College’s mission to “. . . provide a comprehensive education to equip students for faithful and fruitful service to God and neighbor.
