Hillary Clinton to speak on foreign policy at Hendricks Chapel Monday
CORRECTION: A previous version of this article misidentified James Steinberg’s position before coming to SU in July 2011. He served as deputy secretary of state to Hillary Clinton.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will visit Syracuse University on Monday to meet with students and participate in a conversation about foreign policy.
Clinton, a former New York senator, will attend the midday event at Hendricks Chapel. The event will begin at noon, said Jill Leonhardt, director of communications and media relations for the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs.
The doors will open at 9:45 a.m. and all attendees must be seated by 11:15 a.m. Attendees are subject to security screening, and large bags and backpacks are discouraged, said Maxwell Dean James Steinberg in an email to students Friday.
The event is free, open to the public and will be streamed live on Maxwell’s website. Clinton and Steinberg will discuss policy in a conversation titled ‘America and the World.’ Before coming to Maxwell in July 2011, Steinberg served as deputy secretary of state to Clinton.
Steinberg has solicited questions from students, and Clinton will address a chosen few after their conversation at the event, Leonhardt said.
Before the public event, Clinton will meet with one of Steinberg’s classes, Leonhardt said.
