Whittington Lecture

The Whittington Lecture was established in 2002 in memory of Leslie Whittington, former associate dean and professor of public policy at Georgetown. Leslie, along with her husband and two children, died on September 11, 2001. The Lecture honors Leslie’s commitment to investigating pressing public policy issues by providing a forum for thoughtful dialogue with policy and political leaders.
