Food for Thought - free lunch, great conversations, every Friday

Picture
Food for Thought is one of the Campus Ministry Center's longstanding traditions.
Each Friday from Noon to 1 p.m., we invite Miami students, faculty, staff, and Oxford community members to share food, learning, and conversation.

Food for Thought is free (donations accepted), and is funded in part by a grant from the Presbytery of the Miami Valley.
