Lecture on Leadership at Westminster College Tonight

Dr. Joseph Nye served as Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs and Chair of the National Intelligence Council during the Clinton Administration. Tonight at 7 p.m., Nye speaks at Westminster's Gore Concert Hall, sponsored in part by the Utah Council for Citizen Diplomacy. The lecture is free and open to the public.
