SPA celebrates 75th anniversary with panels

March 18, 2009

The School of Public Affairs plans to celebrate its 75th anniversary with the “What do we expect from our government?” conference beginning March 26, according to an AU press release.

The conference will include a range of panelists, professors, elected officials and distinguished alumni. Panelists will discuss a variety of issues that the Obama administration will have to face in the upcoming months, including immigration, terrorism and climate change.

SPA celebrated its actual anniversary, March 3, with a reception in the Katzen Arts Center. The reception took place exactly 75 years from the birth of SPA, when then-President Franklin D. Roosevelt vowed to support the new school.
