Visitors include distinguished lecturers, well-known artists and musicians, best-selling authors, and leading religious figures. \nMembers of the campus and community are invited to attend lectures and presentations free of charge, unless otherwise announced. View the list of upcoming speakers online. \nWhile Skye Lounge in the Student Center and the McCartney Library are accessible, we apologize that our historic Old Main, home to the John White Chapel, is not.  \nWhile 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.” \nFor more information, contact cfl@geneva.edu. ","author":null,"publishDate":"2026-10-14","type":"News Release","title":"Mark Taylor Presents Love, AI, and Speaking for Yourself","imageDesc":"Mark Taylor, PhD","url":"/article/mark-taylor-presents-love-ai-and-speaking-for-yourself","blogCategories":"","id":"1b9b25750a0000054759d410ef7c26c5","detailUrl":"/news/2026/10/mark-taylor-presents-love-ai-and-speaking-for-yourself.json","sourcePath":null,"slug":"mark-taylor-presents-love-ai-and-speaking-for-yourself"}}
