Former U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole and her husband Bob will speak in Kansas.
The two former senators will give a rare joint interview on May 3 as part of an annual lecture at the University of Kansas.
"These two individuals have had independently extraordinary careers dedicated to public service," said Bill Lacy, director of the university's Dole Institute of Politics in a statement. "Yet together, the Doles’ successes are even more remarkable."
The title of the lecture is "Unlimited Partners," also the name of a book written by the two during Bob's presidential run in 1996.
Bob Dole has given one of the lectures before, but the institute has been trying to get both of them to appear together. The lecture series commemorate his recovery from wounds suffered in World War II.
The event is free and open to the public.
