Ten AGS Students and Alumni Meet Pennsylvania Governor |
Wednesday, 04 April 2012 |
The Governor spoke to each of the AGS/Arcadia participants and met with Alexis Delabre, chairman of the board of AGS, and Eileen Servidio, president of the School of International Relations and Diplomacy at AGS who were also in attendance. In his speech about economic, cultural and educational development in Pennsylvania, Governor Corbett then cited Arcadia as one of the state's major universities represented at the reception. "Through its affiliation with Arcadia, and through the very nature of its programs, the American Graduate School in Paris hopes to take a small part in the larger mission of transatlantic cooperation between France and the US. Discussing these matters with Governor Tom Corbett and his Cabinet members was therefore a very constructive opportunity as they seem extremely keen on encouraging this kind of cooperation," says Alexis Delabre. The reception was held in Paris at the George C. Marshall Center, one of the buildings of the US embassy in France, located near Place de la Concorde. Representing AGS and Arcadia were:
"We are very proud of our long and deepening affiliation with the American Graduate School in Paris," says Arcadia President Oxholm. "Because of the high regard in which AGS is held in Paris and by the international community, our students are able to be taught by some of the best in the diplomatic field. We are very glad that Governor Corbett was able to meet our students and faculty, and see firsthand the potential value to Pennsylvania from our excellence in study abroad."
