TEDx Talk At North Central College In Naperville

A TEDx event is scheduled for Friday, March 31 at North Central College.

The theme of the event is 'Come to Your Senses.'

"When we encounter an unexpected idea that resonates deep within us, it has the power to revive our latent dreams – the ones that make us truly alive. We wake up. We see a vision. We hear a calling. We come to our senses," according to the event's website.

Six North Central alumni will give 12-minute talks and six current students will give 3-minute talks. The subjects of the talks range from “The Fallout of Financial Illiteracy” to “Unearthing the Truth About Organics.”

TED, which stands for technology, entertainment and design, is a non-profit that spreads ideas, usually through short talks. TEDx events are independently run events licensed by TED.

The four-hour event will start at 4:30 p.m in NCC's Meiley-Swallow Hall. Tickets are $20 for the public and $10 for NCC students. More information can be found here.
