Description of Pictures: Wilson's Legacy Reconsidered
In celebration of the Wilson Center’s 50th anniversary, we invite you to two panels exploring the relevance of President Woodrow Wilson’s international and domestic record for today.
To what extent is the 28th president’s vision for world order still applicable in the face of the profound shifts that the international system is undergoing at present? Are there lessons to be learned from his domestic policy accomplishments and failures?
Join us for a forward-looking conversation about Wilson’s ideas and legacy with distinguished experts and prominent Center alumni.
(2) Revisiting Wilson’s Domestic Record (seated left to right):
* (Moderator) John Milton Cooper, Professor Emeritus, University of Wisconsin
* Kathryn Lavelle, Professor of World Affairs, Case Western Reserve University
* David Wessel, Economic Studies Senior Fellow, The Brookings Institution
* Eric Yellin, Professor of History and American Studies, University of Richmond
* Devin Fergus, Distinguished Professor of History and Black Studies, University of Missouri

Description of Subject Matter: The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars calls itself the living, national memorial to President Wilson established by Congress in 1968 and headquartered in Washington, D.C. It is a nonpartisan institution, supported by public and private funds, engaged in the study of national and world affairs. The Center establishes and maintains a lively, neutral forum for free and informed dialogue.
The mission of the Center is to commemorate the ideals and concerns of Woodrow Wilson by: providing a link between the world of ideas and the world of policy; and fostering research, study, discussion, and collaboration among a full spectrum of individuals concerned with policy and scholarship in national and world affairs.
Throughout the year, they present free lunchtime and other policy discussions. They are affiliated with the Smithsonian Institution but they are also independent. Their home page is at http://www.wilsoncenter.org/.
Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
