The Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy will kick off its spring roundtable discussion series with “The United States as a Third World Country.”

While the United States is, by some measures, the richest country in the world and its military the most well-funded, in several key ways the United States is beginning to show the characteristics of a developing country.

Moderated by Dr. Jim Ludes, vice president for public research and initiatives and executive director of the Pell Center, the roundtable discussion will be held at 11:45 a.m. Friday, Feb. 15 in the O’Hare Academic Building, Room 242.

Roundtable discussions are open to Salve Regina students, faculty and staff. The Pell Center provides a free lunch. As space is limited, those interested in attending are asked to RSVP to (401) 341-2927 or pellcenter@salve.edu.
