The Gomes Lecture

This lecture is held in College annually. It is in admiration of the late Reverend Professor Peter Gomes of Harvard University. He was an Honorary Fellow of Emmanuel.

The lecture was established in 1997, as a gift to the College. Our benefactors are Kenneth & Cynthia Rossano and Mary Rossano, a graduate of Harvard & Cambridge.

Each lecture is a College occasion of intellectual significance. It strengthens the ties between Emmanuel & Harvard University, and our respective countries. It is also a celebration of those who have gone before.
