Join our popular Great Decisions series, an international relations discussion group that meets in person at the Library. This 8-session course, designed by the Foreign Policy Association, focuses on the most pressing issues of our time. The discussions will be moderated by members of the Library’s World Affairs Forum. Read the Foreign Policy Association briefing book before each session and engage in lively discussions.
The World Affairs Forum meets on the first and third Monday of the month at the Library.
