Our summer funding and fellowship information is now correct and up-to-date on our website.

Hi all,

The Colloquium originally scheduled for this coming Tuesday, January 26, has been postponed until March 30. Please mark your calendars accordingly. I will be sure to have an updated schedule available at the next ISS Colloquium on Tuesday, February 2 when Nick Rutter, Department of History, Yale University will be presenting his paper “Whose Iron Curtain? War, peace, and borders at the 1951 World Youth Festival.”

We have some exciting events next week that we hope everyone will come to.

On Monday, November 9, Archie Brown will be speaking in the Hall of Graduate Studies (HGS) Room 211 at 4:30pm on “The Fall of the Wall and the Fall of Communism: Why – and Why 1989?”

Then on Thursday, November 12, Charles Hill will be speaking in the Sterling Memorial Library Lecture Hall and Memorabilia Room at 4:30pm on “The Trojan Horse: a Case in Grand Strategy”.

We hope to see you there!

Hi all – our Grand Strategy page on the website has been updated with information for those interested in applying for 2010. It can be found here: http://www.yale.edu/iss/gs/

We are doing some long-overdue updates to our website yale.edu/iss. While we do, please keep checking here for information on upcoming events. And don’t hesitate to give us some feedback!

In light of the tragic turn of events in the Annie Le case, we at ISS have made the decision to move our annual Fall picnic indoors to our rain location (2nd floor common room, Luce Hall). We hope to see you all there.

Sincerely,
Kathleen Murphy
Program Coordinator

The Annual ISS Fall Picnic will be held Monday, 9/14 at 5:30pm on the lawn in front of Luce Hall.

If you have not yet rsvp-ed, please e-mail Kathleen Murphy at kathleen.murphy@yale.edu or call her at 2-6242.
