Last Friday, US President Barack Obama was announced as the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate for 2009. Does a president of nine months currently managing two wars deserve this prize? Who were the other top contenders? What was the Nobel Committee’s rationale for its surprise decision? What are the political and international effects for Nobel Laureate Obama and the United States as a whole? Finally, should the President have even accepted the award? Come to Wig Lounge from 8-9 pm Wednesday night to discuss and share your thoughts on these and other questions about this surprising world event. The discussion is sponsored by the Pomona Student Union, and two PSU members will be guiding the conversation, but overall this is simply a time for students to come, share their thoughts, and get a sense of others’ opinions. Snacks and drinks will be provided.
