UWM at Waukesha is honored to host a special in-person presentation by former U.S. Secretaries of Education Arne Duncan (Obama administration) and Margaret Spellings (G.W. Bush administration), on Thursday, April 10, 2025, at 7 pm, in its gorgeous Lunt-Fontanne Theatre at 1500 N. University Drive, Waukesha. The pair will be addressing the burning question of  “Can America’s Public Schools and Colleges Be Fixed?” which is of great local as well as national interest. They will be in dialogue with one another—and with the audience—on the timely subject in the midst of headlines about the issues of American education as well as the future of the Department of Education.

Registration is requested. The event is free and open to the public, and free parking is provided. RSVP here for the in-person presentation (7:00 pm - 8:00 pm) on or before April 1st.

The event is sponsored by the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.
