Fr. Gabriel Richard was one of the co-founders of the University of Michigan as well as pioneer priest, educator and statesman. The Fr. Gabriel Richard Lectures, named for him, are designed to help students and community members enrich their understanding of the Catholic faith. Distinguished speakers share their insights on prayer, moral life, social justice and contemporary theological issues.
