Glenn School/Wilson Center Panel on the Crisis in Syria


On Friday, July 19, the Glenn School's Washington Office and the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars co-hosted a panel on the crisis in Syria.  The event was held in the Wilson Center's auditorium at their headquarters in the Reagan Building.  Moderated by Michael Van Dusen, executive vice president of the Wilson Center and long-time Congressional staffer, the panel featured Ammar Abdulhamid, a Syrian pro-democracy activist; Scott Mastic, head of the Middle East and North Africa division at the International Republican Institute (and an Ohio State graduate); and Dr. Peter Mansoor, U.S. Army Colonel (ret.) and professor of Military History at OSU.  In the photo above, the panelists are shown in that order, left to right. Behind the scenes was program coordinator Joe Sadek, who worked with the Wilson Center to compose and publicize the panel, which attracted a large and enthusiastic audience.
