Dr. Anand visiting professor at Princeton University |
Sunday, 22 July 2007 |
In July 2007, Dr. Ruchi Anand headed out to Princeton University, New Jersey, to teach a capsule on US Foreign Policy to graduating highschool seniors working towards their admission in the Ivy League Colleges in the US. She taught a program called the Junior Statesmen of America that has now existed for 60 years. Every year, over one thousand outstanding highschool students with a passion for government and politics gather on five campuses (Princeton, Yale, Stanford, Georgetown and Northwastern) to immerse themselves in politics and debate. Dr Anand has offered this capsule on US foreign policy at Georgetown (2001) and Princeton (since 2003). |

Ryan MillsUnited States From current issues in the Middle East taught together by an Iranian historian and an Israelli journalist, to NGO management taught by the director of Human Rights Watch in France, every class was fascinating and taught by some of the most impressive people I could ever have imagined. I immediately felt at home in this small but active AGS community because, although students and professors are all from different parts of the world, everyone takes the time to understand each other's perspective. Overall, I would recommend AGS to anyone with a thirst for intellectual stimulation and a drive to not only understand the world of international relations, but engage in it.. |
