Capus M. Waynick Lecture and Cultural Series Endowed Fund

The Capus M. Waynick Lecture and Cultural Series Endowed Fund was established in 1984 via a gift made by former ambassador Capus Miller Waynick of High Point, North Carolina. The lecture series will offer programs annually for the benefit of the High Point University family and will be open to the general public. In recognition of Mr. Waynick’s diverse interests, the series will include programs having international, national, and cultural or performing arts themes. The central purpose of the programs will be to expose High Point University students to individuals and groups having national and international recognition and to provide an intellectual experience beyond the classroom. Past speakers of the Capus Waynick Lecture Series have included: Dr. Lynne Cheney, Howard K. Smith, Sergei N. Kruschev, David Eisenhower, Linda Wertheimer (NPR), and William F. Buckley. Note: The distribution amount is going into Fund 1 for general support of speakers. Our commitment was to provide a named speaker related to the focus of the endowment description above on an annual basis.
