It marks the fifth and final Timothy and Sharon Ubben Lecture of the 2014-15 academic year. The 44th Vice President of the United States, 1969 DePauw graduate Dan Quayle, visited campus on March 31. This year's other Ubben Lecturers have been television's Jimmy Kimmel, Orange Is the New Black author Piper Kerman and New York Times columnist David Brooks.

Established in 1986 through the generous support of 1958 DePauw graduates Timothy H. and Sharon Williams Ubben, the Ubben Lecture Series was designed to "bring the world to Greencastle" and 100 programs have been presented. Other previous guests LGL 6301 have included Margaret Thatcher, Mikhail Gorbachev, Bill Clinton, Spike Lee, Tony Blair, Benazir Bhutto and Jane Goodall.
