Convocation

Convocation is the formal graduation ceremony for Weinberg College, celebrating the culmination of students’ coursework. Each graduate is individually recognized as they cross the stage and their name is read aloud.

The Leopold Lecture series has brought a variety of distinguished speakers to the Northwestern campus, focusing on diplomacy and international affairs. The Richard W. Leopold Lectureship was established in 1990 to honor the late eminent diplomatic historian and dedicated educator.

James Lecture

The Jeremiah S. and Helen James Lectureship on Assyrian Civilization and Culture was established in 1999 by the late Helen James Schwarten, a prominent and active member of the Assyrian community.
