An Address by David L. Boren on Global Education in the 21st Century: A National Imperative

Back on October 12, 2010, current University of Oklahoma President (and former U.S. Senator and Rhodes Scholar) David L. Boren delivered an address to a Washington, D.C. audience entitled “Global Education in the 21^st Century: A National Imperative”. The event was sponsored by the Institute of International Education, the National Security Education Program and the Language Flagship Group. For more specifics on this speech including a link to pictures of the event, a link to more video and more information about Senator Boren please visit the Boren Awards for International Study website at http://www.borenawards.org/videos.html.
