What’s a Good Talk?

“Good talk!”

It’s what you say and feel after a conversation that truly enlightens, stimulates, and inspires you.

The Howard Thurman Center is giving you a chance to have a “good talk” unlike any other. We’re connecting BU students with an amazing opportunity: intimate chats with big names in diverse fields. You’ll sit across from someone who inspires you and will engage in dialogue about how they have found success, and how you can too.

Each opportunity will be awarded to the undergraduate(s) who best exhibit the passion and drive to become like the professional they admire. Those accepted will be required to submit a brief summary of the experience that will appear on this website. Please apply if you are seriously interested and feel comfortable sitting across a small table from a brilliant mind.

MTV’s Georgia Arnold and the Enough Project’s John Prendergast have already signed on for Good Talks. We’ll be adding more names to that list in the weeks to come.

Who would you like to chat with? Let us know! Have a connection to a big name? Hook us up!

Good Talk will launch in Fall 2011. Stay tuned for updates.
