Join Ivy alumni and friends for a fun, interactive evening with radio host, public speaker, lexicographer and journalist Grant Barrett (Columbia ’02). Barrett is co-host and co-producer of A Way with Words, a nationally syndicated radio show headquartered and produced in San Diego. He’s also the author of two books, and, as a lexicographer specializing in slang and new words, a contributor to dozens of dictionaries.

Ivy Plus community members will enjoy light gourmet supper fare from uberfood, a new San Diego-based food delivery service founded by Gen Furukawa ’04 that offers freshly-prepared organic and locally sourced meals for the home and office.

“A Lively Defense of Slang” is hosted by Procopio, Cory, Hargreaves & Savitch LLP and co-sponsored by the Brown Club of San Diego, Columbia Club of San Diego, Harvard Club of San Diego, MIT Club of San Diego, and the Princeton Club of San Diego.
