The Inaugural Centennial Lecture with Lee C. Bollinger, President of Columbia University (Video)

The Foreign Policy Association’s year-long Centennial Lecture Series, commencing in spring 2017, will celebrate 100 years of commitment to fostering an educated public discourse on the most influential topics in U.S. foreign policy. The Foreign Policy Association’s Centennial Lecture Series will feature extraordinary speakers, who will take the long view and imagine the future in their respective disciplines. The importance of providing citizens with accessible, in-depth, non-partisan material is vital to future world peace and prosperity. In one of his final public addresses, President Franklin D. Roosevelt told the Foreign Policy Association that “In a democracy the Government functions with the consent of the whole people. The latter must be guided by the facts.” Now more than ever, this message continues to have resonance, and will remain the guiding principle and goal of the Foreign Policy Association.

Registration begins at 5:30pm and a reception will follow the remarks.
