We welcome you back to the David and Lyn Silfen University Forum website. We’re in our sixteenth year. We look forward to having you join us for this year's event, providing great speakers and conversation you’ve come to expect from Penn.

The University of Pennsylvania affirms, supports, and cherishes its bedrock commitments to freedom of thought, inquiry, and speech. We do so through our principles and policies, including, but not limited to our Guidelines on Open Expression and the Temporary Standards and Procedures for Campus Events and Demonstrations. Thank you for making plans to join us for this year’s Silfen Forum.
