Great Decisions 2003

The Great Decisions discussion series, coordinated locally by the League of Women Voters, uses materials developed by the Foreign Policy Association (www.fpa.org), a national nonprofit, nonpartisan organization formed in 1918 to promote understanding of international affairs. Learning materials include a briefing book and a videotape set. Tapes are usually broadcast on the local cable access channel.   Once again it's time to think joining a Great Decisions discussion group.  In case you're not familiar with the program, Great Decisions books are published annually by the Foreign Policy Association, focussing on major foreign policy issues in eight areas.  These books will be available after the holidays.  Starting in January, groups will meet to discuss these questions. To find out more about the program or to order a book, call Judy Rose 631-2237 Updates to last year's topics are available on the Foreign Policy Association web site <www.fpa.org>,  as well as information on  the program for 2004.
