New York–Former United States Senator Joseph Lieberman will deliver his first public seminar as a member of the Yeshiva University faculty on Tuesday, October 28 at 7 p.m. in Weissberg Commons, 2495 Amsterdam Avenue, New York City. Lieberman’s lecture, titled “Judaism and Public Service,” will be followed by a Q&A session with students.
“I am very much honored to begin my work at Yeshiva University this semester,” said Lieberman. “I see this as a great opportunity to share my experiences in government and politics with the students and hopefully engage and spark their interest in public policy and public service.”
Lieberman, who was appointed the inaugural Joseph Lieberman Chair in Public Policy and Public Service through a gift from University Benefactors Ira and Ingeborg Rennert, will deliver three public lectures and teach one course in the spring.
On Tuesday, November 18, he will present “The Emerging Law of Cybersecurity” at Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. A third lecture on foreign policy is planned for Spring 2015.
The event is open to the public, but advance registration is required. To RSVP, please visit www.yu.edu/Lieberman-lecture.
