The Frank Rhodes Lecture Series on the Creation of the Future: A Lecture Series for a New American University is a new lecture series beginning in Fall 2011 at the direction of ASU President Crow to help advance his vision for a New American University and the need to redefine the role of higher education in society. Each semester an individual with a commitment to institutional innovation will visit ASU to deliver a public lecture on the creation of the future as well as meet with members of the ASU and greater community.
