Join us at our Auburn, Alabama campus or live online for a seminar covering money, where it comes from, what governments do to it, and where it’s going in the future. Whether you’re looking to learn about money for the first time, or you’re looking for a refresher on money basics, you’ll find these easy-to-understand lectures to be a timely and engaging event. 

Attendance is open to homeschool, public, or private high school students and their chaperones or teachers, and college students. Through the generosity of a Mises Institute donor, this seminar is free to everyone. In addition, all of the sessions will be broadcast live on Mises.org.
