Sen. Hagel Addresses DGA Students and Faculty
DGA's Student Assoc. of Global Affairs with U.S. Senator Chuck Hagel (R-NE)
Friday April 9, 2010- U.S. Senator Chuck Hagel (R-Nebraska) gave a talk at Rutgers-Newark campus entitled, “America: Our Next Chapter.” This title may sound familiar to you. That would be because it is part of the title of the Senator’s recently published book, America: Our Next Chapter- Tough Questions, Straight Answers. He has been popularly characterized as using a “common-sense approach” to the challenges facing America, as a “hero to liberals,” and as “bold” in his approach to foreign policy and combating terrorism.
Senator Hagel’s presentation was followed by a luncheon. In attendance from DGA, were M.S. and Ph.D. students, including representatives from DGA’s Student Association of Global Affairs (SAGA) and DGA core faculty.
Rutgers’ Eagleton Institute of Politics in New Brunswick hosted this exciting event. Senator Hagel is the current Clifford P. Case Professor of Public Affairs. This distinction given by Eagleton, honors the memory of New Jersey Senator Clifford P. Case, who served 34 years in the U.S. Congress representing New Jersey.
