Gephardt dedication

Chancellor Mark S. Wrighton and Richard A. Gephardt stroll across campus on Sept. 19, a day that included the dedication of the Richard A. Gephardt Institute for Public Service and the recognition of Constitution Day.

In Graham Chapel, Wrighton greets economics guru Hernando de Soto, who spoke at the dedication of the institute. The event also was part of the Assembly Series.

De Soto speaks to an undergraduate economics class in Arts & Sciences as Murray L. Weidenbaum, Ph.D. (far right), the Edward Mallinckrodt Distinguished University Professor, looks on.

In the Women’s Building Formal Lounge, Gephardt discusses the relevance of the U.S. Constitution in today’s society as part of Constitution Day.
