Inaugural Lecture: “Touching Freedom”
In recognition of the
millions of servicemen and women who have dedicated their lives to protecting
American freedom and values throughout the world, the inaugural “Celebrate our
Heritage” lecture titled “Touching Freedom” by Christiane Warren, PH.D., commemorates
the 35th year since fall of the Berlin Wall (1989) and the 30th
