Dear Colleagues:<\/p>\n

Please join us on Friday, February 9, to discuss the choices facing the United States in Iraq.\u00a0 That is the topic of the\u00a0Friday Public Affairs Lunch Discussion<\/b><\/strong>, which will meet in\u00a0Crawford Hall, Room 9, from 12:30 \u2013 1:30 p.m.<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0on the Case Western Reserve University campus.<\/p>\n

Paul Schroeder, currently Lecturing in Political Science at Case Western, will lead the discussion.\u00a0 Dr. Schroeder spent 10 years as a newspaper reporter before receiving his doctorate in Political Science at The Ohio State University, where his research focused on the development of Chinese business.\u00a0 He then worked in China as trade representative for the State of Ohio and in New York as corporate programs manager for the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations.\u00a0 Dr. Schroeder has also been managing director of East-West Trade Development, Ltd., a trade management firm with a focus on China.\u00a0 This past Fall he taught our course on The United States and Asia, and this Spring he is teaching The Politics of Development in the Global South.<\/p>\n

In the wake of the August 2005 death in Iraq of their son, Marine Lance Corporal Edward “Augie” Schroeder, Paul and his wife, Rosemary Palmer, founded Families of the Fallen for Change, a national non-profit organization devoted to finding a responsible solution to American involvement in Iraq.\u00a0 He has worked with Norm Robbins to develop a proposal for American withdrawal from Iraq, and Families of the Fallen has had written testimony accepted by the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.\u00a0 You can find more information about those efforts at\u00a0www.fofchange.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Friday Lunch is open to all.\u00a0 Lunch is brown bag, but coffee, tea, and cookies are provided thanks to the generosity of the Office of University Communications and anonymous donors.\u00a0 We are glad to be back on the lower level of Crawford Hall.\u00a0 It has been remodeled a bit since we last met there.\u00a0 Room 9 is within the Inamori Center; you enter the Inamori Center and turn to the right.<\/p>\n

Best regards,
\nJoe White<\/p>\n

Spring Semester Schedule<\/p>\n

Beginning on February 2,\u00a0the Friday Lunch will move back to Crawford Hall, in ROOM 9. Room 9 is within the Inamori Center, on the basement level of Crawford<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It is very kind of Bill Deal, Director of the Inamori Center, to make this room available on a regular basis. Thank you, Bill!<\/p>\n

Room 9 seats 35, with a central table and also chairs along the wall. It should be a better setup than Guilford. If we expect a large crowd, we may be able to open a partition and join up with Room 11.<\/p>\n

There will, however, be a class in the room until 12:20. Therefore it will not be possible to get there much before the lunch begins. On the other hand, people who are a bit early should be able to hang out in the Tomlinson food court. I believe the underground passage from Tomlinson to Crawford will be restored when construction is finished.<\/p>\n

Coffee will be provided from the SAGES Cafe’. Which should mean very good coffee.<\/p>\n

The tentative schedule of speakers, so far:<\/p>\n

January 26:<\/strong>\u00a0Phil (Perkins Professor of Physics-Case Western Reserve University) and Sarah Taylor,\u00a0Wind Power and All of It’s Aspects – Environmental, Energy,\u00a0 Economic, Aesthetic, and Maybe More.<\/p>\n
