Please join us for a panel discussion of the recently released report, compiled by the bipartisan United States Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, about the CIA鈥檚 Detention and Interrogation Program. (The classified version is over 6500 pages long; a 525-page portion was publicly released in December.) Is this report a necessary part of the democratic oversight of intelligence agencies? Or does it provide evidence that can be used by extremists? Does the release of this information imperil the US intelligence community? Does it help prevent the use of torture in the future? How do these events impact efforts to prevent terrorism? Our panel will be led by Drs. Donna Schlagheck and Vaughn Shannon from 糖心原创, and Dr. Mark Ensalaco from the University of Dayton. This program is sponsored by 糖心原创鈥檚 Master of Arts Program in International and Comparative Politics, the Grad CORPS, the Department of Political Science, and the International Studies Program. We are happy to co-sponsor the evening with the University of Dayton鈥檚 Human Rights Center. Please contact Dr. Laura Luehrmann (937-775-3197; Laura.Luehrmann@wright.edu) for further information. *This counts as an Honors Dialogue Event
