We wanted to let Yalies in the area know that Jamie Kirkchik would be in the DFW area on Monday, July 30th for a dinner at the Fort Worth Club. Jamie announced a write-in campaign as an alumni fellow on the Yale Corporation several months ago in a Wall Street Journal op-ed. He is a visiting fellow in the Center on the United States and Europe and Project on International Order and Strategy at the Brookings Institution.
