Location: Kissick Auditorium, Arrillaga Family Sports Center, 641 Campus Drive, Stanford (between the running track and Maples Pavilion)
RSVP requested: http://histsoc.stanford.edu In recognition of the 50th anniversary of the founding of Stanford in Government (SIG) during the seismic social change of the mid-1960s, a panel moderated by Larry Diamond ’73, MA ’78, PhD ’80, SIG faculty advisor, Hoover Institution Senior Fellow and faculty co-director of the Haas Center for Public Service, will explore Stanford’s emergence after World War II as a national and international institution with complex ties to government. Drawing on their personal experiences, panelists will discuss how a private university fulfils its public purpose—what creates and sustains Stanford faculty, student and alumni connections with government service. Panelists are Steve Westly ’78, MBA ’83, former California State Controller; Larry Horton ’62, MA ’66, Senior Associate Vice President and Director of Government and Community Relations; and Meredith Wheeler ’14, current chair of SIG, a Harry S. Truman Scholar and new Rhodes Scholar. This program is cosponsored by Haas Center for Public Service and Stanford in Government.
