| Summary |
Program #799 : "Title: Educating Tomorrow's Leaders. The history of education in America is largely written in superlatives. And the 'jewel in the crown' of American education has been for many decades, post secondary education. But now the leading role of these institutions is under pressure; threatened externally by the growth of quality education in other nations and internally by the needs of a large 'untraditional' student body. Mary Brown Bullock, President Emerita of Agnes Scott College in Atlanta Georgia and currently a Public Policy Scholar at the Woodrow Wilson Center, takes up the question of whether American universities have the ability to make the changes needed to sustain their leading role."--Track Sheet. |

Program #874 : "Title: Africa: Waging Peace. Ending warfare in the developing world and establishing democracy has proven to be a difficult task. Holding "free and fair" elections is essential to building stability but much more is required for sustained peace. Participants must learn to trust one another and to view political power as something that must be shared. The key is for former antagonists to see each other as equals and to build human relationships that will sustain a peaceful future."--Track Sheet. |
|
Lee Hamilton Commentary #343 : "Title: You Might Not Miss Conference Committees, But You Should. Conference committees on Capitol Hill are vanishing to the detriment of our democracy. Former Congressman Lee Hamilton explains that, 'You Might Not Miss Conference Committees, But You Should.'"--Track Sheet. |
