The Carter Lecture Series

Established in 1986, the family of the late state Senator and Mrs. Clem M. Hamilton formed the Hamilton Lecture Series to honor their parents. When the Honorable Jimmy Carter spoke in 1989, the Hamilton Series was to end, but former President Carter was so impressed with the theme and purpose of the lectures that he pledged a sufficient endowment to continue the series. Named in honor of Carter, the yearly lectures always present outstanding political and educational leaders.
