What Others Say About Us
“I was extremely impressed with [Gen. Gard’s] presentation on nonproliferation, particularly his knowledge of the technical aspects, which I've only begun to research. Thanks again for coming to Trinity, we weren't kidding when we said it was one of the best events we've had all year.”
-- Patrick Disney, student, Trinity University

"We want to thank you for the excellent program for nearly 200 people at the Colorado Foothills World Affairs Council on January 15, 2008.

We received exceptionally positive feedback from members, both on the topic and on the speakers."

“Our residents join me in thanking you very much for setting up the lecture that General Johns and Dr. Helfand gave to us this past Wednesday here at Kensington Place.
"Please convey our thanks to the two gentlemen for the great program they presented. The feed-back from our residents was very positive and the topic was a very timely reminder that discussions like these should get a lot more attention. We thank them for their efforts to educate us on subject matters that affect all of us and generations to come.”
– Gisela Slayman, Activities Coordinator, Kensington Place, Columbus, Ohio
"We attempt to schedule each year a wide array of cultural programs and lectures to augment our students’ classroom experience. The September 19, 2008 presentation by Gen. Gard and Dr. Helfand will rank as one of the most significant events held at Park University in recent years, having challenged our students and faculty to think carefully about their world and their future."
- Eric Bergrud, Director, International Center for Civic Engagement at Park University, Parkeville, Missouri
"Before attending a talk at Ohio State University put on by the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation, I understood little of the nuclear non-proliferation issue. After that talk, I decided that this was an issue that needed attention on campus. We are now working our best to spread the message of the dangers posed by nuclear weapons and the need for the complete disarmament by the international community.”
- OSU student Andy Riedy, president of Students for Nuclear Non-Proliferation, a group on campus which formed after the Center's presentation.
