We are living in a world of change and new challenges, driven by technology and globalization--and after 9/11, even terrorism is a global phenomenon.
Our emerging world, shaped by telecommunications, information technology, and life sciences discoveries has new dangers but also new opportunities. Senator Bradley outlines how change plays out in our economy, in our politics and in our human relations. Senator Bradley served in the U.S. Senate from 1979 to 1997 representing the state of New Jersey.
As a senator, he worked to promote economic growth, foster racial healing, and protect the nation's national heritage. Prior to serving in the Senate, he was an Olympic gold medalist in 1964 and a professional basketball player with the New York Knicks from 1967 to 1977 during which time they won two world championships. Senator Bradley holds a BA degree in American History from Princeton University and an MA degree from Oxford University where he was a Rhodes Scholar. He has authored five books on American politics, culture, and economy. A Reception will follow Senator's Bradley's address in the Library and Great Hall.
