Although the thematic content of Lani Guinier’s Keynote presentation and the proceeding luncheon was not manifestly concerned with economic turmoil, it seemed to be on the minds of many audience members.

Guinier’s speech in the Student Center Auditorium was the centerpiece of EMU’s commemoration of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. It was her second visit to EMU as the MLK Keynote Speaker.
