The event is free and open to the public. Mr. Gingrich has expressed interest in engaging the Latino population of the greater Fox Valley area as he campaigns across Illinois before the state's primary on Tuesday, March 20.
"As an institution of higher education committed to engaging the pressing issues of our time from a variety of perspectives, Judson is pleased to serve the Fox Valley community by hosting this event," says Judson University Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Dale Simmons.
This event comes just one month ahead of another major event hosted by the university. Nobel Laureate and former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev will be the keynote speaker at Judson's annual World Leaders Forum on Saturday, April 21. President Gorbachev will speak at a VIP event for the Forum on “Leadership Insights: My Time with Ronald Reagan.” A Q&A will follow the presentation. Those interested in registering for the VIP Event can go to JudsonU.edu/WLF/VIPEvent.
This will be the second annual World Leaders Forum; last year the university hosted former U.S. President George W. Bush for the inaugural event, which was established to raise funds for their Entrepreneurial Endowment Fund and the Judson Student Scholarship Fund to assist current Judson students.
