Location: Washington, D.C.
School of International Affairs alumni and friends are invited to the School of International Affairs 10th Anniversary Reunion in Washington, DC on June 8, 2019.
There is a full day of fun, learning and networking. We are pleased to offer two very special private tours: The International Monetary Fund and the National Geographic Museum. In between the tours, we will enjoy a casual networking lunch downtown at Vapiano on M Street.
Our day culminates with a special dinner during which we will celebrate SIA's 10th anniversary, hearing from SIA Dean Hari Osofsky and Director Scott Gartner about the school’s accomplishments and future plans. We also will recognize all of the school’s founding faculty, with a special award for Professor Dennis Jett, who has the distinction of having taught every SIA student since the program’s inception.
