Mission<br />
<strong>The</strong> mission of <strong>The</strong> <strong>ellioTT</strong> school of inTernaTional affairs is:<br />
• To educate the next generation of international leaders<br />
• To conduct research and produce scholarship that advances understanding of important global issues<br />
• To engage the public and the policy community in the United States and around the world,<br />
thereby fostering international dialogue and shaping policy solutions<br />
our mission is to create knowledge, share wisdom and inspire action to make our world a better place.
A<br />
recent survey of scholars ranked the Elliott <strong>School</strong>’s undergraduate and graduate<br />
programs in the top 10. Only five schools in the world were ranked this highly in<br />
both categories. It’s an impressive club.<br />
It’s also an important club. <strong>The</strong> issues we study at the Elliott <strong>School</strong>—ranging from war and<br />
peace to poverty and development—affect the lives of billions of our fellow human beings.<br />
Powerful international dynamics—population growth, rising levels of resource consumption,<br />
the expansion of the global economy, mounting environmental challenges—will shape the<br />
world in the decades ahead. Wise policy and effective international cooperation will be more<br />
important than ever. At the Elliott <strong>School</strong>, the study of international affairs is not an abstract<br />
exercise. Our aim is to make our world a better place.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Elliott <strong>School</strong> is in a unique position to make a difference. Our location in the heart of<br />
Washington, DC—just steps from some of the most influential U.S., international and nongovernmental<br />
organizations in the world—enriches our teaching and research, and it provides<br />
us with unmatched opportunities to engage the U.S. and international policy communities.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Elliott <strong>School</strong> is special, not just because of where we are, but who we are. As you will<br />
see in this Annual Report, our scholars, students and alumni are extraordinarily talented<br />
and dedicated, united by a passion for international affairs and a commitment to others,<br />
and they are accomplishing great things. <strong>The</strong> Elliott <strong>School</strong> community is one of the largest<br />
networks of international affairs experts in the world, and this further magnifies our impact<br />
on the world.<br />
I am grateful to the members of the Elliott <strong>School</strong> community for their exceptional<br />
commitment to our collective endeavors. I am especially grateful to our many donors for<br />
their generous support of this wonderful and important institution. Gifts from donors are<br />
having transformational effects on our students and faculty, on our teaching and research,<br />
and on our ability to make a difference in the world.<br />

program that draws on anthropology, culture, economics, geography, history, languages,<br />
political science, science and technology. Graduate students combine rigorous academic<br />
courses with professional training, including skills courses on topics ranging from political<br />
analysis to leadership. Students come to the Elliott <strong>School</strong> from many different parts of the<br />

“Though I went on to get an MBA from Wharton, it was GW that fostered my love for international<br />
affairs and international economics, leading me to work all over the globe. Thus, giving to GW was an<br />
easy decision. I wanted to make sure other students could benefit from a GW education the way I had.<br />
My professors were experts in their fields, whether that field was academia, government or industry.<br />
<strong>The</strong> District of Columbia was my university. I traveled to international law libraries, the Library of<br />
Congress and any relevant institute to do research for courses. Averell Harriman, diplomat, statesman<br />
and former U.S. ambassador to the Soviet Union, led my small group seminar. His wife, Pamela<br />
Harriman, sat in the back of the room for every class. I was in the center of the political universe!<br />
When my daughter was ready to go to college, we decided we wanted to start a family tradition,<br />
mother then daughter, at GW. Maybe if I have a granddaughter, she will continue the tradition.”<br />

sierra leone, Tanzania and uganda, gaining<br />
valuable experience on the front lines of economic<br />
development. Our students also benefited from<br />
exposure to the hundreds of international students<br />
at GW, and the 60 students from 29 countries who<br />
joined our graduate programs as full-time degree<br />
students, exchange students or through our master<br />
of international studies (MIS) dual-degree program.<br />

<strong>The</strong> region plays a critical role in supplying the energy needed<br />
to support economic growth and improved living standards<br />
around the world. For more than 100 years, ExxonMobil has<br />
had a presence in the Middle East, and we were delighted<br />
to support the Elliott <strong>School</strong>’s Middle East Policy Forum<br />
and contribute to raising awareness and encouraging<br />
dialogue on issues impacting this important region.”<br />

the internAtionAl council<br />
<strong>The</strong> International Council is an advisory body composed of distinguished alumni and friends of the<br />
Elliott <strong>School</strong>. Members provide counsel to the dean and offer valuable external perspectives on issues<br />
facing the school.<br />
<strong>The</strong> International Council convenes semi-<strong>annual</strong>ly. In October 2006, the Council examined academic<br />
programs, alumni relations and fundraising, and received a briefing from Assistant Secretary of State<br />
for Intelligence and Research randall m. fort (BA’78). In April 2007, Council members, students and<br />
guests heard amb. edward W. Gnehm, Jr. (BA’66, MA’68) deliver his first official lecture as the Kuwait<br />
Foundation professor of Gulf and Arabian Peninsula affairs. At the meeting that followed, the Council<br />
focused its attention on the Elliott <strong>School</strong>’s external relations and met with the Vice Chair of the GW<br />
Board of Trustees nelson carbonell (BS’85).<br />
A number of International Council members are active in Elliott <strong>School</strong> programs:<br />
maria livanos cattaui and steven l. skancke (BA’72, M.Phil.’78, Ph.D.’81) teach courses<br />
James B. Quigley (BA’82) and elin Thomasian (BA’00, MBA’05) came to campus to recruit<br />

Timothy J. medina (BA’88) is active with the david h. miller foundation, a group working to enhance<br />
African Studies at the Elliott <strong>School</strong><br />
We are indebted to this exceptional and engaged corps of leaders.<br />
“I’ve found that contributing to the Elliott <strong>School</strong> has been very rewarding.<br />
It’s been very fulfilling to be a part of building a first-class institution with<br />
a growing international reputation. But more than that, as compared to<br />
contributions to other institutions with a history of large endowments, I’ve felt<br />
that my contributions have had more impact and therefore meant more at the<br />
Elliott <strong>School</strong>. In addition, as a contributor, I’ve been made to feel part of the<br />
community and have been welcomed for my insights and energy as much as<br />
my monetary commitments. All in all, giving to the school has been a terrific<br />
experience, and one where I felt that I was making a real difference.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> daVid h. miller endoWmenT<br />
David H. Miller (BA’87) died at the age of 39 of lymphoma in 2004. After his death, friends and family established the<br />
David H. Miller Endowment for African Studies at the Elliott <strong>School</strong>. David Miller believed that Africa’s success will be<br />
ensured by access to higher education for African nationals, and by educating people in the developed world about the<br />
economic, cultural and political challenges in Africa today. As the Miller endowment grows, the fund’s <strong>annual</strong> earnings<br />
will enrich African studies at GW through part-time professorships, by sponsoring public lecture series and extending<br />
financial support to African students to attend the Elliott <strong>School</strong>.<br />
“David H. Miller dedicated his career to the advancement of U.S.-African relations. <strong>The</strong><br />
David H. Miller Endowment is dedicated to perpetuating his legacy. <strong>The</strong> Endowment will<br />
sponsor programs to raise local awareness for healthcare, political and economic initiatives<br />
in Africa, fund and support graduate student exchange programs and build African studies<br />
at the Elliott <strong>School</strong>. <strong>The</strong> Endowment also seeks to increase awareness of problems in<br />
Africa, and through educational programs, develop sustainable solutions.”<br />

$6,000 needed to purchase land for the Columbian<br />
College —now George Washington University.<br />
Members of the Luther Rice Society carry on the<br />
tradition by helping GW maintain its status as one<br />
