One of the many Vaclav Havel Civil Society Symposium events will take place from 3 to 5 p.m. Monday, Oct. 11, in Room 108 of the O’Shaughnessy-Frey Library Center on the St. Thomas campus.

Dr. Lisa Schirch will lead a simulated negotiation concerning post-war policies in an international setting. In the program, “Forging 3D Security: Mock Strategy Negotiation,” student teams from the university’s Political Science, Justice and Peace Studies, and ROTC programs will represent the three “Ds” of “3D Security,” which are development, diplomacy and defense. The students have been preparing for the mock negotiation session, which will be followed by a discussion open to the audience. 

Please read the complete article about Ms. Schirch’s visit  and about the symposium itself, which was established in 1999, in the October 8 issue of Bulletin Today.
