Harvard Law School visiting scholar and terrorism expert Hassan Abbas will discuss the Arab world on Wednesday, April 16 at 7:30 p.m. in the Fort Howard Theatre, Bemis International Center at St. Norbert College.
The presentation is the final part of the national Great Decisions lecture series, an eight-week program discussing international issues of interest to the community.
