About the Collection
Brookings Scholars visit UNLV to offer public lectures, engage with UNLV faculty and students on collaborative research, and meet local, regional, and state leaders in business, government, and social services. Each visiting scholar partners with 1-2 UNLV faculty liaisons and 1-2 graduate student liaisons to determine the appropriate content for the public lectures, schedule meetings with faculty and students, and interact with local, state, and regional leaders in greater Las Vegas.
