PLACA and LLAS Presents a Special Session of the Spanish Table with Rafael Fernández de Castro

This week's Spanish Table will be led by Abbey Steele, Assistant Professor of Public Administration & International Affairs. Prof. Steele will be sharing her research experience in Columbia.

The Maxwell School is hosting a distinguished visitor, Dr. Rafael Fernández de Castro for the day. Dr. de Castro will be attending this special meeting of the Spanish Table as a guest, and has accepted our invitation to stay on after the Spanish Table to meet with students from the Maxwell School. Everyone is invited to attend one or both events. We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to interact with this distinguished scholar.

We’re Turning 100!


To mark our centennial in the fall of 2024, the Maxwell School will hold special events and engagement opportunities to celebrate the many ways—across disciplines and borders—our community ever strives to, as the Oath says, “transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.”

Throughout the year leading up to the centennial, engagement opportunities will be held for our diverse, highly accomplished community that now boasts more than 38,500 alumni across the globe.
