People of the Book Series - Wednesday, December 14, 2011
Our own Stuart Levey, JPDS-NC parent and former Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence at the Treasury Department, has been described as President Obama’s ‘enforcer’ against Iran, and as the top U.S. official in charge of financial sanctions against Iran and North Korea. He will reflect on his time serving in both the Bush and Obama administrations, with JPDS-NC parent and veteran Washington Post journalist Debbi Wilgoren. These events provide the forum for occasional gatherings designed to bring people together to learn from and with the talented authors, scholars, policymakers and artists that are part of our JPDS-NC community. RSVP today!
Purim Ball and Auction Gala - March 11, 2012
This has been a venerable JPDS-NC tradition for many years. It is a time for our community to join together and celebrate the school and to honor individuals who support us or who serve as leaders in our the community. More information about this year's Purim Ball will be posted in January 2012. (Alumni student ticket price is reduced!)
Annual Yitzhak Rabin Memorial Lecture
This year's lecturer was Admiral Mike Mullen, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Admiral Mullen joined The New York Times columnist and JPDS-NC alumni parent David Brooks in an in-depth look at the role of the armed forces as a moral, cultural and humanitarian force, and shared his vision and insights on the leadership and security challenges in an ever-changing world. Close to 500 people attended the lecture this year.
