On Friday, Feb. 20, Ralph Begleiter, Rosenberg Professor of Communication and distinguished journalist in residence, will further explore the turmoil in the Middle East in his lecture “War in Iraq: American Perception Versus World Views.”

Capping the series on Friday, Feb. 27, Ed Ratledge, director of the Center for Applied Demography and Survey Research, will look to the future in a lecture titled “Delaware Demographic Changes and Challenges 2000-2030.”
