Such training requires the special facilities of well-equipped and well-staffed institutions designed to give this kind of instruction. The need is urgent.

As the concept spread, “the AACSB has become enor- mously helpful and supportive.” Sensitive to the perceptions about quality, programs often went out of their way to raise the bar, says Scalberg.

    #1 MOST-VIEWED EVENT in 2017: The Death of Trust: Real News, “FAKE NEWS,” and the Cyber Plots Designed to Divide Us Free Livestream, On-Demand Video Webinar Overview The confluence of legitimate news versus phony news, plus the proliferation of nation-state and criminal cyber plots all aimed at disrupting democracy and destabilizing trusted institutions, leave journalists and communicators struggling to separate fact from fiction and maintain credibility with increasingly jaded citizens and consumers. If communications professionals can no longer trust the information we receive, how is our civil society supposed to function? Please join us to hear our forum participants grapple with these questions and others. Is there such a thing as “fake news” and how do we recognize it? What is the extent of the threat? What are the business and political implications? What are the new rules of communications? How do brands manage in a post-trust environment? What is the role of the corporation and CEO, the CMO, the agency professional, and the journalist in this brave new world? What is the role of Silicon Valley and the FAANG companies who influence so much of our news? Moderator Mark J. Rozell Dean The Schar School of Policy and Government | George Mason University Mark J. Rozell is the author of nine books and editor of twenty books on various topics in U.S. government and politics including the presidency, religion and politics, media and politics, and interest groups in elections.

Milliken, President University of Nebraska 3835 Holdrege Lincoln NE 68583 (402) 472-8636 [email protected] Subject: Confirmation/Denial of Claim Made in Film, “Who Killed John O’Neill?” Dear Dr. Milliken: Thank you for serving at one of the finest institutions of higher learning. Many owe gratitude to our university system. As a Cornell graduate much of my gratitude is focused on service to common citizens. Deployment of education, individually or collectively, for the primary purpose of “success oriented” self- aggrandizement is unethical. Such behavior leads to individual pusillanimity and inveracity. This in-turn leads to social discord and potentially national collapse. Many are concerned that academia, particularly the so-called elite academia, has ignored or even encouraged this improper deployment. I am familiar with the common citizens of the heartland including Nebraska; it is well known that self-aggrandizement is not intrinsic to their values. It is in this context, among others, that I request the subject. Enclosed is the documentary film, “Who Killed John O’Neill?” At the beginning, the voiceover states: “On July 3, 1979 the C.I.A. gave birth to Islamic Fundamentalism, when President Carter signed a directive for United States intelligence to provide radical Islamic thinking and arms to Afghan fighters, before the Soviet Union invaded. This is documented in a 1998 interview with Zbigniew Brzezinski, Carter’s National Security Advisor.” B Later, at approximately nine minutes, the main character states: “The C.I.A.
