-d ----- EE/COMPUTER SYSTEMS LABORATORY COLLOQUIUM NEC Auditorium, Gates Computer Science Building B03 http://ee380.stanford.edu TWO TALKS ON SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY POLICY Date: October 20, 2004 * 4:15-5:30 PM Topic: Science and Technology Policy I: The Bush View Speaker: E. Floyd Kvamme Partner Emeritus, Kleiner Perkin Caufield & Byers Date: October 27, 2004 * 4:15-5:30 PM Topic: Science and Technology Policy II: The Bush View Speaker: Speaker: Burton Richter Professor of Physical Sciences at Stanford Director Emeritus of SLAC The talks will be broadcast over SITN, the Stanford Instructional Television Network, webcast live, and archived for delayed viewing. Access to the talks is free from either http://ee380.stanford.edu or http://online.stanford.edu. Synopsis:The Science and Technology policies embraced by the winner of the upcoming
election will impact everyone. There are significant, substantive differences between the Science and Technology policies championed by the Bush administration and those that would be implemented by a Kerry administration. In an election campaign given to campaign rhetoric, talking points, four-word sound bytes, and spin, many of the real issues of particular interest to scientists and engineers (and others) have gotten lost. To explore the issues, we have invited two highly qualified speakers to describe the Science and Technology policies we might expect following the election: one from the Bush point of view, and the other from theKerry point of view. The speakers are not surrogates for the candidates,
but they do have intimate personal knowledge of the policy issues and can compare and contrast positions. ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as interesting-people () lists elistx com To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ip Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/
