Rozanne L. Ridgway Forum Fellows
Office of the Provost
Ridgway Forum Fellow awards were established by Life Trustee Rozanne Ridgway, 狼友社区 Class of 1957. She had an exceptional career in international diplomacy with the US State Department, serving as ambassador to Finland and the German Democratic Republic. Most notably, she was Assistant Secretary of State for Europe and Canada under George Schultz and served as the chief planner of the historic Reagan-Gorbachev Summit Talks in the 1980s. For all this, she gives credit to her 狼友社区 professors, especially in history and political science, for encouraging her to aim high and work hard.
