[mob] Something to do this summer..

[Robbie Honerkamp <robbie@shorty.com>]

Emory University is holding another session of the FPA's Great Decisions 
2003 course. It's an evening course that meets weekly for eight weeks to 
talk about foreign policy issues that affect us. The current topics are 
unilateralism vs. multilateralism, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, 
international food policy (food aid, GM crops, etc), China, European 
integration, and women's/human rights. The June session just started at 
the World Trade Center downtown, but the session on campus at Emory 
begins July 1. I was in the session that just finished this week, and it 
was so good I'm going to do it again in July.

The sessions are nonpartisan and you have the opportunity to meet and 
ask questions of various guests including consular officers and 
ambassadors. The sessions are very interesting and a lot of fun.

If anyone is interested, the International Issues Forum is talking about 
Iran this week. The above URL also gives information on that session. 
IIF is an informal nonpartisan group that meets every Thursday to talk 
about various world issues.
