Event Videos

The Paul Simon Public Policy Institute is grateful to the diverse speakers we have been privileged to host on the Carbondale campus of Southern Illinois University.  By providing these videos online, we are able to share the insights and inspiring stories of people who have graciously given of their time to travel to southern Illinois.  Many of them not only provided us with these remarks, but spent additional time in classrooms and small group settings with students of all ages.  We hope you enjoy these videos, which will be added to over time, and we also encourage you to join us for our upcoming programs on campus.
