About Regents Professor Lecture Series

In order to highlight the work of the Universityâ€™s most distinguished faculty, in Spring 2008, Provost Sullivan initiated the Regents Professor Lecture Series, featuring public talks by newly appointed Regents Professors. The Regents Professorship is the highest recognition given by the University to a member of its faculty for outstanding academic distinction in scholarly or artistic work, teaching or contributions to the public good. The series celebrates these faculty membersâ€™ many accomplishments, brings attention to their unique scholarly contributions, and allows the University community to learn about their important work first hand.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
