Nobel Night is a tradition at UBC’s Okanagan campus, a chance for professors to discuss the significance of this year’s Nobel Prize recipients—some of the world’s most outstanding contributors in medicine, physics, chemistry, literature, economics and peace—including Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos and singer-song writer Bob Dylan.

Following the presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. This event is free and open to public. Pay parking is available on campus. While the event is free, donations to the United Way are gratefully accepted. To register or find out more, visit: nobelnight2016.eventbrite.ca

To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children, to earn the approbation of honest critics; to appreciate beauty; to give of one’s self, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived–that is to have succeeded.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
