UC Berkeley’s Campus Conversations is a series of live talks with campus leaders who share their vision for the future and invite the campus community to join in.

Now, more than ever is a pivotal time in higher education and at UC Berkeley. Many campus leaders are seeking new opportunities for Berkeley and working to address the challenges affecting students, faculty, and staff. This series of talks enables the community to understand the issues facing our campus and engage together in developing solutions.

Graduate Division Dean Lisa García Bedolla has been actively involved in a number of recent Campus Conversations, helping to answer questions and clarify issues around fall semester planning, instruction, and support for graduate students.

Video recordings of these one-hour conversations featuring Dean García Bedolla, listed below, can be found on the Campus Conversations website or the UC Berkeley Events YouTube channel.

In an upcoming Campus Conversation scheduled for August 28th at noon, Lisa will be joined by Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost, Paul Alivisatos, and Academic Senate Chair, Jennifer Johnson-Hanks.
