Boston Speaker Series - Ian Bremmer



Boston Speaker Series
Allison Kornet, US English Teacher and Faculty Advisor to The Vanguard



Here is the gang I took to Ian Bremmer, the global politics expert and president of Eurasia Group. Cat Butchaskiy said she felt it was fulfilling to hear him speak with some depth about Ukraine and Brazil, two countries that are home to her, as part of the geopolitical scene. Magnus Aske and Kathryn Goebel referred to the talk at length in econ class and in an econ blog, Ms. DiPasquale reports, and Harry Golen heard relevant connections in our speechwriting class' discussion of anti-Semitism and to his column this week in the Vanguard about the implications of anti-Israel positions. Meanwhile, we were ready to use this picture and his comments on Venezuela if we needed room in our Current Topics spread on the crisis there, but we had plenty to fill the page without him.
