Lois Hetland says, "Today, Tuesday, January 26, from 5:30-7:-00 pm in Askwith Hall on Appian Way, Harvard Graduate School of Education, Howard Gardner will be presenting an Askwith Forum marking the 25th anniversary of the publication of Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences. He rarely speaks on MI anymore, so I expect he'll be interesting in this retrospective. If you're interested, just be sure to go early -- I'm pretty sure it'll be a full house."
