There is no more sobering debate in a democracy than whether to go to war. As teachers of politics and international relations, our careers are dedicated to studying national security, the rule of law in international affairs, and the causes and consequences of war. Unlike a country that is invaded and must respond quickly, the decision to invade Iraq is one that can accommodate a full discussion of U.S. national interests and the principles that we seek to follow.

Obama's most immediately important statement was his adamant reiteration of his conviction that Israeli settlement expansion must be halted, in conformance with the commitment made by Israel in the road map agreement, and that an independent Palestinian state must come into being. [...] the control of Congress by the so-called Israel Lobby (Likud Lobby is closer to the truth, since the right wing of the Israeli political spectrum has for years controlled the public presentation of the Israeli case in the United States) has made protest seem futile, and dangerous to political and academic careers. William Pfaff is the author of eight books on American foreign policy, international relations, and contemporary history.

A billion-dollar controversy involving Princeton University has brought into sharp focus one of the most important issues facing the nonprofit community today: whether the terms of restricted gifts have an expiration date. In 1961, donors Charles and Marie Robertson - he a loyal Princeton grad, she an heiress to the A&P supermarket fortune - endowed a foundation to finance the preparation of Princeton graduate students for federal government careers in international relations and foreign affairs.
Princeton officials told Fred Hechinger, the New York Times' legendary education writer, that the gift would enable the school to "do what it and other universities have long wished to do: establish professional education for public service at a level of excellence comparable to the country's b...

Public relations students at two U.S. universities separated by several time zones were assigned to use online message boards to communicate with each other as well as cultural consultants in Korea to write an issue statement and promotional plan for an international strategic communications project. The technology acceptance model was found to fit well with student attitudes and behaviors related to online bulletin board systems used in the class project. Student perceptions of the ease of using online technology were the strongest predictors of their intentions to use this technology in their careers beyond the classroom.
