SAP hosts a weekly seminar series. For the Fall 2026 semester, we are hosting in-person events, typically at 12:15 pm Mondays in G08 Uris Hall. All events are open to the public. All times Eastern (New York) Time.

Our annual Tagore Lecture in Modern Indian Literature features an author from South Asia or its diasporas. We also partner with Cornell student organizations to bring South Asian musicians, dancers, and other artists for campus performances.
