Ambassador Alzugaray is the second holder of the Weissberg Chair at Beloit College. Last year, noted Palestinian activist and commentator Hanan Ashrawi visited the College and offered a series of programs concerning peace in the Middle East. The presence of Weissberg Scholars on the Beloit College campus opens new views and perspectives for our students and faculty and for the community beyond the campus, notes Mouat Junior Professor of International Studies Beth Dougherty. Alzugaray brings a broad background in a variety of disciplines and immense practical experience in the diplomatic field over four decades to bear on numerous issues which we hope to examine during his visit. A detailed schedule of the Weissberg Residency will be published in several weeks.
All events are free and open to the public.
