No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, we can all agree we’re better off when we rigorously examine the institution from every angle. At the Miller Center, we work hard to put aside our personal political leanings to objectively and thoroughly study all 45 U.S. administrations—and more broadly the executive branch. Our most important audiences are not just policy makers but also engaged citizens like yourself. Our democracy depends on a government and a body politic that together embrace the lessons of history—replicating successes and correcting failures. Thanks to your generous support, the Miller Center had many great successes of our own during the 2017–18 fiscal year. During that time, our ambitious “First Year Project” came to a close. We tracked how President Trump’s first year broke with precedent in so many ways, yet he continued key trends such as increased use of executive power and single-party legislation. This past year we also saw the kickoff of the bicentennial celebration at the . We are proud to be part of the third century of this great BILL ANTHOLIS institution that was established by some of America’s earliest presidents: Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and James Monroe. We launched Presidency at a Crossroads—an ambitious research agenda that asks the important questions: How can American presidents lead a system that is almost 250 years old? How have they shaped the international system— in fighting wars and building alliances? How have they come to represent an ever-more diverse nation? How do they manage an increasingly complex—and often divided—national conversation? This research will be reinforced by a three-day “Presidential Ideas Festival” from May 21 to 23, 2019, at UVA and in and around Charlottesville. We are proud to sponsor this event as a signature Bicentennial Celebration, in partnership with UVA’s College of Arts & Sciences, UVA’s Center for Politics, Monticello, Montpelier, Highland, Morven, the Presidential Precinct, and American Evolution. We also have spent the past year laying the groundwork for another exciting new undertaking: the pan-University Democracy Initiative. We are collaborating with the College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences to establish UVA as the leading institution in the practice, teaching, and scholarship of democracy and public service. We believe no other public university is better suited to advance democracy—in America and the world—in our next century. As you can see, we’ve been quite busy. And we foresee more of the same for 2018–19. Of course, without your generous support, none of this would be possible. On behalf of the entire Miller Center, I thank you, our committed benefactors, for your generosity and for your commitment to our mission. With thanks,

BILL ANTHOLIS Director and CEO, Miller Center
