A quick reminder:
CSPS is hosting its third annual leadership tour of the Gettysburg battlefield on
Saturday, October 14th. This all-day event is free of charge and open to all Schar School students (friends & family are welcome too). If you're interested in history, decision-making, strategy or civil-military relations, this tour is for you. It's
also a great opportunity for first-year students to meet one another outside of the classroom!
Please note that there is a mandatory preparatory lecture before the actual trip. We will post the lecture online for those who can't attend either of the prep sessions in person.
Upcoming events:
- The Center for Naval Analyses is hosting a panel on North Korea entitled "Understanding North Korea's Strategic Calculus: What's at Stake?"
from 9:00 am - 10:30 am on Wednesday, October 11th. CNA is located at 3003 Washington Blvd (a few blocks from Founders Hall). The event features Admiral (Ret.) Fallon, David Sanger, David Finkelstein and Ken Gause. Our very own Zack Steinborn
is helping to put it together. If you are interested you need to
register here today (October 6th). Send any questions directly to Zack at [log in to unmask][log in to unmask]">

Internship opportunities:
CATO is currently soliciting applications for its paid internship program. You can find more information at
cato.org/intern. Several I-SEC graduates and faculty work at CATO. I would be glad to put you in touch if you have more questions.
I hope to see you at one or more of these events! Have a great long weekend!
Best,
