Dean's Roundtable
The Dean's Roundtable (DRT) is IR/PS's flagship speaker program. It is one of the liveliest forums in Southern California for the discussion of current international issues focused on the Pacific region. Speakers present informative lectures on the global economy, up to the minute political insights and forecast future international scenarios. Donors to IR/PS who give $1200 annually or more are invited to attend all DRT events and the Annual Leadership Luncheon. Download the Dean's Roundtable brochure for more information.
