List of upcoming Fall 2026 EACS Lunches coming soon!

Join us for EACS Lunch!

  • Whether you’re an EACS major/minor, are interested in declaring in EACS, or are just taking an EACS course, you’re welcome to join us for EACS Lunch!
  • EACS Lunch events are always on Tuesdays—usually every other week during the semester—and always begin with pizza (and a raffle!) in Carnegie 219 at 12pm, before we move to a lecture room for a panel discussion, a talk from an invited speaker, or an info session for/by EACS students!
  • Upcoming lunches are posted in Bates Today, EACS department emails, and are announced on flyers around the 2nd floor of Carnegie Hall.
