The Tucker Table
The Tucker Center hosts a monthly research presentation and discussion—The Tucker Table. The Tucker Table provides opportunities for collaboration and encourages intellectual insight within the School of Kinesiology and across campus. Tucker Table is free and open to all interested parties. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunch, as sessions are hosted over the lunch hour. We look forward to seeing you around The Tucker Table.
