The Elliott School of INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
THE ELLIOtt SCHOOL OF INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS ANNUAL REPORT 2006/2007 MISSION THE MISSION OF THE ELLIOTT SCHOOL OF INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS IS: • To educate the next generation of international leaders • To conduct research and produce scholarship that advances understanding of important global issues • To engage the public and the policy community in the United States and around the world, thereby fostering international dialogue and shaping policy solutions Our mission is to create knowledge, share wisdom and inspire action to make our world a better place. A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN recent survey of scholars ranked the Elliott School’s undergraduate and graduate programs in the top 10. Only five schools in the world were ranked this highly in A both categories. It’s an impressive club. It’s also an important club. The issues we study at the Elliott School—ranging from war and peace to poverty and development—affect the lives of billions of our fellow human beings. Powerful international dynamics—population growth, rising levels of resource consumption, the expansion of the global economy, mounting environmental challenges—will shape the world in the decades ahead. Wise policy and effective international cooperation will be more important than ever. At the Elliott School, the study of international affairs is not an abstract exercise. Our aim is to make our world a better place. The Elliott School is in a unique position to make a difference. Our location in the heart of Washington, DC—just steps from some of the most influential U.S., international and non- governmental organizations in the world—enriches our teaching and research, and it provides us with unmatched opportunities to engage the U.S. -

INTERNSHIPS are unpaid. Academic credit or independent funding is sometimes possible; students should contact the appropriate persons at their school if they wish to pursue either of these options. Applications are accepted from students at any point in their college career, as well as from graduate students and recent college graduates.

2020 Graduation Celebration Saturday, May 16, 2020
THE GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY 20 20 2020 GRADUATION CELEBRATION SATURDAY, MAY 16, 2020 Undergraduate Programs 2020 GRADUATION CELEBRATION SATURDAY, MAY 16, 2020 SEAL OF THE COLUMBIAN COLLEGE In 1819, the Reverend Luther Rice, Obadiah B. Brown, Spencer H. Cone, and Enoch Reynolds (all Baptist ministers) set in motion the reality of a college in the District. These men raised the needed funds to purchase land in the nation’s capital, petitioned the Congress for a charter, and began organizing a college. On February 9, 1821, President James Monroe signed the Act of Congress which created the College. By design of the Congress, a special provision was included which required that “persons of every religious denomination shall be capable of being elected Trustees; nor shall any person, either as President, Professor, Tutor or pupil, be refused admittance, or denied any of the privileges, immunities, or advantages thereof, for or on account of his sentiments in matters of religion.” The original seal was designed by James Peale in 1821, at the time of the founding of the Columbian College. This is the seal that the graduates are wearing today as medals. The seal features a Biblical lion lying down with a lamb and Greek text in an open book. The Greek translates to “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God.” In 1873, the name Columbian College was changed to Columbian University and the seal was changed slightly to reflect this. The Latin text around the outside was changed from “Columbiani Collegii” to “Universitatis Columbianae Sigillim.” In addition, some text was added to fill up the rest of the open book, since the Greek phrase only took up part of one page. -

BROWN This is an exceptionally exciting time at the George Washington University’s Elliott School of International Affairs. As we reflect on another academic year of tremendous accomplishments, we are also refining the Elliott School’s priorities in the run-up to GW’s 200th anniversary in the year 2021. GW’s Strategic Plan, adopted in May 2013, identifies four university priorities that are also real- world imperatives: the need to understand and address the challenges posed by globalization and other global issues; the worldwide necessity for better governance and policy; the continu- ing imperatives of citizenship and leadership; and the need for intellectual innovation through cross-disciplinary collaboration. As one of the world’s elite schools of international affairs, the Elliott School is well-positioned to support the university’s goals in all of these areas. To turn the Strategic Plan into a reality, GW officially launched a $1 billion philanthropic cam- paign–Making History: The Campaign for the George Washington University–in June 2014.
