Kirby Lecture in Free Enterprise and Entrepreneurship at Wilkes University on Tuesday, Oct. 11.

River St., Wilkes-Barre, Pa. A book signing will conclude the lecture. The event will also be livestreamed for those who cannot attend in person. Wood was originally intended to give the Kirby Lecture in Nov. 2018. Due to inclement weather, the lecture was canceled. In the spirit of entrepreneurial thinking, Wood quickly reacted, providing informal remarks to Wilkes students earlier in the day. Seats are expected to fill quickly.
