Anthony Fauci’s lecture in the Distinguished Carlson Lecture series, which was scheduled for Tuesday at 6 p.m., will be rescheduled.

The University canceled the lecture because of student protests and occupation of Morrill Hall against the Israel-Hamas war, according to an email from Melanie Sommer, the communications manager for the Humphrey School of Public Affairs.

The new date for the lecture has not been announced.

“Given the importance of this lecture and the unexpected and complicated incidents that occurred on campus in the past 24 hours, University officials determined it best to reschedule to ensure a great experience for attendees and our University community,” Sommer said.
