Due to a change in the GSA’s contract with the Office of Special Events, which reduced the number of tickets we will be receiving for each speaking engagement, the GSA has been forced to change our ticketing policy for the Distinguished Speaker Series.  Students will only be eligible to receive one ticket per UB ID for each event.  Tickets are always given out on a first come, first served basis.  Please note that you must be present and have your UB ID in order to receive a ticket.
