The two will speak at Lisner Auditorium starting at 10 a.m. – but from 9:30 a.m. to the conclusion of the event, the 2100 block of H Street will be closed to vehicular traffic and students may not be able to get to parts of that block, according to a campus advisory posted Thursday morning. Portions of Pennsylvania Avenue may also be closed.
