Leaders in Ideas, Leaders in Action

SFL Webinar Series is an interactive educational program providing students all over the world live virtual access to academic lectures on topics related to liberty, mentoring on activism, and advice for career building. Through the program, we provide year round support for students who seek opportunities outside their university classrooms to learn more about classical liberalism, discover how they can become better spokespeople for liberty and advance themselves towards liberty-oriented careers and internships. Listening to the lectures is completely free, and students from all over the world are invited to participate.

We run the program through webinars (web-based seminars), which allow us to stream a lecture live to hundreds of participants at the same time. Speakers and listeners join the program from their computers and interact in a live question and answer session after the lecture.

Check below for a list of our upcoming webinars.

To register, simply click on the registration link for the webinar you wish to pursue and you will be sent an email with instructions on how to join the webinar.

We look forward to having you all tune in throughout the school year! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact Liya Palagashivili, SFL Executive Board Member at lpalagashvili@studentsforliberty.org .

Topic: “The Case Against Education” 

Education is over-rated.  While it sharply increases the incomes of the well-educated, the reason is largely “signaling.”  But the problem is largely the government’s fault: Without almost a trillion dollars of government subsidies per year, we’d waste far less time and money mastering irrelevant subjects – and young people would begin independent, productive lives years earlier.

Speaker: Bryan Caplan
