The FUND for AMERICAN STUDIES BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS build·ing Pronunciation: \ˈbil-din\ Function: noun/verb Date: before 12th century 1:n a usually roofed and walled structure built for permanent use 2 : v to bring into being or develop This document illustrates how The Fund for American Studies is Building Future Leaders – both in America and abroad. As you flip through these pages, discover how The Fund is making the difference by teaching America’s founding principles of free-market economics, limited government and personal responsibility. You will also learn how the new Center for Teaching Freedom symbolizes the much-needed expansion of The Fund for American Studies’ critical mission of Teaching Freedom BUI LDING to today’s young people.

Teague To accomplish such a dream requires many things. Top among them is infrastructure. So, early this year The Fund opened the new Center for Teaching Freedom. This new building is located just across the street from our headquarters in the historic Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C. But it is so much more than just a building. On the first floor is our new classroom. It is the first time in The Fund’s 42-year history that we’ve owned our own. Here, students from throughout the United States and from all over the world learn about free markets, the Constitution, and the consequences of government intervention in the economy. Upstairs is a hub of activity. Here our program staff recruit the very best students, design our curricula and work with our internship sponsors to ensure that our students emerge as the leaders of tomorrow. The new Center for Teaching Freedom also gives us the capacity for growth. It begins with our new Institute for Leadership in the Americas, launched in January of 2009, which takes the ideas of freedom to South and Central America, and our Legal Studies Institute, which teaches the original meaning of the Constitution to first year law students. Today we have six Institutes here in the U.S. and six overseas, plus we hold conferences, alumni events, and seminars. More such activi- 2 BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS FOR LEADERSHIP Building Future Leaders The document you hold in your hands is about dreams – about dreams coming true and dreams of things to come. The greatest dream of the leadership of The Fund for American Studies is that we should reach every student with the ideas of freedom. President Roger R. Ream COR NERSTONE ties are on the horizon when both time and money permit. And perhaps most excitingly, new technologies in the Center will enable us to offer online courses – direct from our new state-of-the-art classroom – to students who cannot attend our programs in person. This gives us the capacity to reach additional thousands of students we couldn’t reach in classrooms. For our loyal supporters, the new Center for Teaching Freedom provides numerous giving and naming opportunities that will help us continue to grow and reach students. Our “Building Future Leaders” campaign also seeks to secure funds for scholarships and professorships so that we can sustain academic excellence. And of course, we continue to dream. We dream of reaching more aspiring journalists with the fundamentals of free-market economics and the standards of objectivity so often lacking in the news media. We dream of teaching more students about the ideas of Madison, Tocqueville, Hayek, Friedman, and other great thinkers whose words are seldom studied in colleges and universities today. And we dream of doubling and tripling the number of our graduates who work on congressional staffs and in key positions in public policy and international affairs. The necessity of The Fund’s work is confirmed by the news we see coming from Washington every single day. It is about another type of dream, a nightmare. That nightmare is of the federal government taking control over our nation’s financial institutions, spending and borrowing record amounts of money, and even offering to guarantee warranties issued by Chrysler and GM. In the words of Mark Levin, a Fund alumnus, radio talk show host, and author of the bestselling book Liberty and Tyranny, the federal government has become “the nation’s largest creditor, debtor, lender, employer, consumer, contractor, grantor, property owner, tenant, insurer, health-care provider, and pension guarantor.” Clearly, America faces a choice – as it always has – between two philosophies of government. One is of a government of virtually limitless power. The other, a government which, in Thomas Jefferson’s words, is “bound down by the chains of the Constitution.” Our generation has made the choice. Liberty has yielded and government has gained ground. In just a few years, the rising generation will have the opportunity to make its choice on this fundamental question. Will they have the knowledge they need to make an informed decision? You and I must rise to the challenge. We must meet our obligation to teach the next generation about the ideas that have held our civilization together, have maintained what peace we have enjoyed, and have created a prosperity unsurpassed in human history. It’s been said that no cause is ever wholly lost, because no cause is ever wholly won. Let us join together today to restore our inheritance of freedom and pass it along to tomorrow’s generation of leaders. Thank you for your support. We hope that once you finish reviewing this document you will be inspired to continue helping make our dreams of Building Future Leaders a reality. BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS 3 “ The greatest success of The Fund for American Studies is its impact on young people. Many of them hear ideas of freedom and limited government for the first time.... Nothing is more important than investing in our ideas better job of that than The Fund for American Studies. FOR TEACHING FREEDOM BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS In 2008, The Fund entered a new chapter in its history when it launched the Building Future Leaders campaign. This multi-year endeavor is The Fund’s first major fundraising campaign in more than 30 years. BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS ~Trustee Fred Barnes FOX News and The Weekly Standard The Building Future Leaders campaign couldn’t be undertaken at a more critically important time. The Founding Fathers’ ideas of limited government, the rule of law, and the protection of private property are being threatened as never before. Capitalism is being attacked, not only by the politicians in Washington but by businesspeople themselves. And college students are graduating without encountering the great thinkers and great ideas of western civilization. The Building Future Leaders campaign will raise funds for the new Center for Teaching Freedom and will enable The Fund to achieve the following goals: • Increase student enrollment and develop new programs • Enhance scholarship support • Secure outstanding faculty and endow professorships • Expand alumni education and other talent development programs • Broadcast distance learning classes and lectures to reach more students at a lower cost. The success of the campaign will depend on a broad base of support from foundations, corporations, alumni, and other individuals committed to teaching the ideas of freedom to the next generation of leaders. 4 “ CENTER and reaching young minds. And, no institution is doing a Dr. Thomas Rustici teaches economics and public policy to Capital Semester students in the Center for Teaching Freedom. BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS 5 U.S. PROGRAMS The Fund for American Studies sponsors six Institutes in Washington, D.C. that teach college students about the principles and values upon which the United States was founded. Each Institute offers students a comprehensive education that includes unique academic courses for credit, internships and professional development opportunities. The ultimate objective is to develop talented young people who are committed to America’s founding principles and will become the journalists, policymakers and influential leaders of tomorrow.

The oldest of The Fund’s programs, the Engalitcheff Institute on Comparative Political and Economic Systems has been building future leaders since 1970. This rigorous program is intended for students pursuing careers in government, public policy or international affairs. In 2008, Dr. Thomas Rustici of George Mason University taught Comparative Economic Systems, replacing Dr. George Viksnins, who retired after teaching the course for 34 years. New to the curriculum in 2008 was an international affairs course taught by Dr. Gary Armstrong (E 84) of William Jewell College. { ICPES 2008 OF OPPORTUNITY 135...........Students 111........Universities 4,094...........Alumni } Outside of the classroom, ICPES students attended exclusive briefings at the White House, on Capitol Hill, at the U.S. Department of State and at the Federal Reserve. They also visited CIA headquarters and embassies throughout D.C. Small groups of students were invited to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in addition to the Peace Corps, the Federalist Society and several congressional offices. Economist Bill Easterly delivered the annual Lev Dobriansky Lecture on Political Economy, and Dr. Lee Edwards of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation received the 2008 Walter Judd Freedom Award. ~~~ The quality of public discourse in a free society depends on the accuracy of information provided by the news media. In 1985, the Institute on Political Journalism was established to help create a new generation of journalists who understand free markets and ethical journalism. IPJ students hold internships with print, broadcast and online media organizations and study economics and media ethics. Site visits and topical lectures supplement their coursework. In 2008, students heard from speakers including Trustee Fred Barnes of FOX News and several alumni journalists: Nikole Killion (J 97) of Hearst Argyle Television, Karen Travers (J 99) of ABC News and Mark Johnson (J 86, E 87) of the Charlotte Observer. Students also attended live broadcasts of NPR’s Talk of the Nation at the Newseum, Meet the Press, FOX News and ESPN’s Pardon the Interruption. { IPJ 2008 WINDOW 86.............Students 68........Universities 1,629...........Alumni } A highlight of the summer for many students was hearing from ABC News’ David Muir (J 93), who accepted the TFAS Alumni Achievement Award at the National Press Club. 6 BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS 7 I gained from this summer. ~ Jonathan Lozier (IBGA 08) East Central University, Oklahoma IBGA students William Moon (l.) of Mississippi State University and Jonathan Lozier (r.) of East Central University listen to presidential aides during a site briefing at the White House Old Executive Office building. 2008 { 62..............Students 55.........Universities 857...............Alumni } Since 1990, students participating in the Institute on Business and Government Affairs have studied the interplay between businesses and government, examining regulatory policy and other attempts by government to intervene in the economic system. In the classroom, students study tax policy and the history of business and government relations. Internship sites include the government affairs offices of major corporations, trade associations and lobbying firms. In 2008, IBGA students attended the annual Congressional Scholarship Award Dinner with Senators Ken Salazar (Colo.), Saxby Chambliss (Ga.), Mark Pryor (Ark.) and Ben Nelson (Neb.) as well as Rep. John Salazar (Colo.). The event serves as a fundraiser that supports scholarships for Institute students. At evening panel discussions, students met with representatives from many businesses and trade associations, including Lockheed Martin, NASDAQ and the American Petroleum Institute. ~~~ 2008 { IPVS 81..............Students 70.........Universities 417................Alumni } Since its inception in 1999, students participating in the Institute on Philanthropy and Voluntary Service spend eight weeks learning about the nonprofit sector and how it is often more effective in solving community problems than government spending and regulation. The Institute works to reinforce a sense of individual responsibility and cultivates an appreciation for the primacy of private philanthropy. IPVS students hold internships at charitable organizations. They experience the nonprofit world firsthand by managing a class grant-making project. In 2008, students raised $2,225, which they awarded to two local charities selected through a competitive proposal process. IPVS students assisted the community by coordinating service events, including a “Literacy Field Day” on Georgetown University’s campus and a hunger banquet. Participants in the Institute gained inspiration at forums with leaders in the nonprofit sector, including John Bridgeland, CEO of Civic Enterprises, and Russell Klein of International Relief and Development. Robert Egger, founder of DC Central Kitchen, provided inspiring remarks after accepting the David R. Jones Leadership in Philanthropy Award. Alumni working in the nonprofit sector participated in panel discussions, including Gwen Fernandez (P 05) of the Supreme Court Office of Public Education, Megan Hoot (P 02) of Independent Sector, and Crickett Nicovich (P 04) of RESULTS Educational Fund. 8 BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS } To offer year-round educational opportunities for college students, TFAS launched the Capital Semester program in 2003. The program runs in both the fall and spring for 15 weeks. CS students learn about the American political tradition and free-market principles while living on Capitol Hill. Through internships at legislative and executive branch offices, charities and think tanks, students gain firsthand knowledge of how public policy is made. Exclusive briefings at key government institutions supplement their experience. In 2008, students met with officials at the Pentagon, White House, U.S. Department of State, Federal Reserve, Congress and the Embassy of Columbia. Each week, students attended a lecture given by a professional in the public policy arena. Speakers in 2008 included Julie Mason, White House correspondent for the Houston Chronicle; Jennifer Pollom of the Senate Budget Committee; and David Kelly, founder and senior fellow of the Atlas Society. CSPJ { 2008 2008 CS 71..............Students 54.........Universities 341...............Alumni 16...........Students 16........Universities 24...............Alumni } In an effort to reach more aspiring journalists with the lessons of free-market economics and limited government, TFAS now welcomes a group of budding reporters to D.C. for its new journalism track of the Capital Semester program. Capital Semester on Political Journalism provides college students with hands-on experience in the media through internships and coursework. CSPJ students gain a solid understanding of free-market economics, the Constitution and public policy issues. Through a weekly guest lecture series, students come face to face with experienced journalists. Among those who addressed students in 2008 were National Politics Editor Charles Mahtesian of Politico; Pentagon Reporter Tom Vanden Brook of USA Today; and Senior Writer Katherine Skiba of U.S. News & World Report. Several students achieved notable accomplishments: one met and helped facilitate a private interview with Dr. Condoleezza Rice and another was offered a position with Politics magazine. Students also attended a Healthcare Roundtable led by Michael Keegan of the National Association of Health Underwriters. Rep. Mike Ferguson (N.J.) (E 90) spoke to Capital Semester students at the closing ceremony in the fall, where he was awarded the 2008 TFAS Alumni Achievement Award. “ We have had a major deficit in education in America on first principles – why the free market works, why capitalism is the best system for growing an economy, why it’s indispensable to our individual liberty. We have a lot of “ never forget. I will carry forever my memories, the values and experience IBGA { It was a whole new chapter that I will “ “ The LIVE, LEARN, INTERN motto says it all.... work to do.

Most of the people in Congress are lawyers. Most of the people who advise the president are lawyers. There are lawyers everywhere. Well, they might as well “ think like us. That’s why it’s important to have a program like this. ~ Mark Levin (ICPES 76) Lawyer, Bestselling Author and Radio Host INTERNSHIPS TFAS internships provide students with a firsthand look at the workings of the U.S. economic and political systems, the world of Washington journalism, corporate government relations and the nonprofit sector. Students intern for approximately 30 hours per week. They are matched with an internship from among the many organizations with which TFAS has built relationships.

NOTEWORTHY SPEAKERS THE PRESS, THE PRESIDENCY & POLITICIANS In addition to summer and semester Institutes, The Fund for American Studies hosts a series of regional journalism conferences. These events teach young, aspiring journalists about the core values of honest reporting and provide rare networking opportunities. In 2008, 150 students from 56 colleges attended “The Press, the Presidency & Politicians.” Held in Washington, D.C., the conference served as a post-election reflection. 12 BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS • Keynote Address: Jay Newton-Small, Political Correspondent, TIME magazine • Fred Barnes, Executive Editor, The Weekly Standard and Political Contributor, FOX News • Richard Benedetto, Former National Political Correspondent, USA TODAY • Shane D’Aprile, Web Editor, Politics Magazine • Sean Higgins, Political Correspondent, Investors Business Daily • Jennifer Hoelzer, Communications Director, Sen.

TO PROSPERITY INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTES When the Berlin Wall fell, TFAS began making it a priority to provide scholarships to university students from Central and Eastern Europe to attend its programs in Washington. The number of students seeking these scholarships became so great that TFAS established its first international Institute in Prague in 1993. TFAS has since added four others, with the goal of bringing the principles of freedom to future leaders all over the world. { 139...........Students 28.............Countries 1,658...........Alumni Established in 1993, the American Institute on Political and Economic Systems is the longest-running international program and largest TFAS Institute. The curriculum engages students in a thorough examination of fundamental political and economic concepts, using the American model as its focus. In the economics component of AIPES, students explore the advantages and functions of the market economy. In the politics component, they examine the historical roots of the U.S. Constitution and study how the document has succeeded or failed to secure ordered liberty under the rule of law. The course draws lessons from this experience and applies them to other forms of government, including parliamentary systems. In 2008, students took part in a legislative simulation, which allowed them to apply the concepts they learned in class. They also heard from experts on diplomatic etiquette and the economic history of the Czech Republic. José María Aznar, former prime minister of Spain, gave the commencement address and received the 2008 Vašek and Anna Maria Polák Award. Aznar is the first Western European leader to receive the award, which has been administered since 1995. In his address, Aznar discussed the U.S.-European relationship and shared his thoughts on America and Europe after President George W. Bush. Outside of the classroom, students were invited to the home of U.S. Ambassador to the Czech Republic Richard W. Graber for a reception. 14 BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS } (l.-r) IIPES students Ralph El Hage of Lebanon and James Hammond of the U.S. ask questions of Professor Stefano Pilotto of the University of Trieste in Italy who served as a guest lecturer at IIPES.

Professors from leading U.S. universities introduce students to new perspectives in political economy, history, philosophy and conflict management. Students explore and debate the ideas of philosophers such as Plato, Tocqueville, Jefferson and Adam Smith. Many IIPES alumni have gone on to work within their communities to bring peace and freedom to the Middle East and the Balkans. In 2008, students attended a panel session with alumna Irena Radovic (I 99) and other diplomats focusing on the prospects for prosperity in South Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Radovic is deputy minister for bilateral relations in the Montenegro Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Small groups comprised of students from all 22 countries represented at IIPES presented skits to help foster an understanding of the different cultures in the region. In the economics class, students engaged in hands-on exercises that demonstrate fundamental economic concepts, including spontaneous order, property rights and trade and comparative advantage. In the conflict management component, students learned about the root causes of discord. They actively participated in interactive simulations based on successful models of conflict resolution. BUILDING FUTURE LEADERS 15 Dr. John S. Baker, Jr. of the Louisiana State University law school joined returning faculty member Dr. Andrew Morriss. In Baker’s course, students explored the basic structure of separation of powers, federalism and republicanism as developed in The Federalist Papers and the U.S. Constitution. In his economics course, Morriss introduced the ideas of leading free-market economists such as Freidrich A. Hayek and Hernando de Soto. He also applied economic games and experiments to his lectures, introducing his students to concepts such as property rights, the price system and comparative advantage. Of the many noteworthy speakers, James Thompson gave a memorable presentation during the closing ceremony. Thompson chronicled his journey from being a young man with little money to his founding of Crown Worldwide Group of Companies. In addition, Yuen-ying Chan, director of the Journalism and Media Studies Centre at Hong Kong University, covered globalization and media development in China, emphasizing the importance of an open and transparent press. Both students and alumni attended a reception on the top floor of the HSBC building in the Central District of Hong Kong, hosted by alumnus Michael Webb (E 89). 2008 { ILA 40...........Students 13.............Countries 40..................Alumni ~~~ } Latin America is experiencing an alarming resurgence of Marxist ideology. Tyrants like Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez are attempting to set up Cuban-style dictatorships. The United States is blasted as the great enemy while economic and political freedom is dismissed. If not checked, this could eventually destabilize the entire hemisphere. In response to this threat, TFAS established the Institute for Leadership in the Americas in 2008. In conjunction with ESEADE, Superior School of Economics and Business Management, TFAS held its inaugural seminar in the historic capital city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. ILA gathered students from 13 Latin American countries to study the foundations of a free society and the principles of prosperity that are inherent in free markets. The program encouraged the students to develop their leadership skills and to apply these concepts to institutions in their home countries. The 2008 ILA faculty included economists Dr. Martin Krause, Dr. Alejandra Salina and Dr. Mario Villarreal. Outside of the classroom, students were featured guests on a national television program on Argentine politics. This program served as a precursor to a longer program held in Santiago, Chile in 2009. { EJI 32..........Participants 20.............Countries 187...............Alumni } { The fifth annual European Journalism Institute brought young journalists to Prague for a one-week seminar. Journalism students and early-career journalists from across Europe learned how to accurately report on news stories dealing with business, the economy and fiscal policies. The faculty focused on the structure and functions of market economics in the context of issues such as competition, the role of government, environmental regulation, health and welfare, globalization and international trade. Participants attended a session called “The Role of Public Media” with Jiří Balvín, general manager of the Czech music television station TV Óčko. They also attended panel discussions, including “Challenges of Energy Policy” and “Czech Economic Transition.” EMJI 2008 } J 2008 2008 66..............Students 14.............Countries 327...............Alumni INTERNATIONAL OURNALISM INSTITUTES 43..........Participants 25.............Countries 118..............Alumni } Journalists from around the world gathered in Athens, Greece for the third EuroMediterranean Journalism Institute. The nine-day conference aims to empower young journalists with the knowledge needed to report objectively on international politics and economic and cultural issues. In 2008, participants were briefed by leaders of the Foreign Correspondents Association in Greece. They heard from President Dimitris Sioufas of the Hellenic Parliament and visited the studios of the Hellenic Broadcast Corporation, ERT. Discussion topics ranged from the obstacles faced in free and unfree societies to the role of images in the media. TFAS works in partnership with the Greek Association for Atlantic and European Cooperation to organize this event.

Thousands have gone on to hold positions of leadership in business, journalism, academia, philanthropy, public service and international affairs. Over 10,500 alumni are changing the world in numerous ways. Each year more than 200 alumni and friends volunteer to serve as mentors to students attending TFAS internship programs in Washington, D.C. In 2008, more than 80 alumni offered career advice and provided general guidance as the students made their way through the intense summer and semester programs. Freedom Scholars This program was developed in 2007 to leverage the impact of TFAS programs through young alumni who are committed to the ideals of free markets and limited government and who work in the public policy arena. The program is a yearlong educational fellowship comprised of networking events, academic discussions and professional development sessions all aimed at further developing these young leaders. These 12 recent alumni receive scholarships to return to Washington in April for The Fund’s Annual Conference. They attend sessions on leadership values, personal finance and business ethics. Forty-three alumni are members of this national board. The Alumni Council meets twice a year and offers advice and support for alumni activities, including the alumni awards program and chapter activities. The council is comprised of U.S. chapter presidents and at-large members. Council officers are Chairman Dan McConchie (J 93, A 95), Vice Chairwoman of Membership Megan Hoot (P 02), Vice Chairman of Governance Ken Klatt (E 70), Vice Chairman of Alumni Activities John Sweda (E 97) and Vice Chairwoman of Communications Desiree Westby (B 02).
