Profs and Pints has resumed talks in venues and is looking to revive its presence in cities where the pandemic had forced it to pause operations. Click the "Cities and Venues" tab for more information on your city. Profs and Pints maintains a repository of the recorded versions of online talks staged in response to the pandemic at its Online Talks page. It has paused its staging of new online talks for now.
Profs and Pints, which is based in Washington D.C., is expanding to other cities where it has built substantial followings with the excellent online talks that it offered during the pandemic. Accordingly, it is looking for partners—including colleges, community organizations, philanthropies, socially conscious investors, and corporate sponsors—who can support its efforts to democratize access to higher learning and provide scholars with new audiences. If interested email profsandpints@hotmail.com.
