MILLSTONE FELLOWSHIP IN PUBLIC SERVICE CO-SPONSORED EVENT

Two seasoned public servants — Commissioner Danny Werfel (Former IRS Commissioner and OMB Deputy Director) and Gregg Nunziata (Former General Counsel to Sen. Marco Rubio and Chief Nominations Counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee)— have led in very different corners of Washington, but with a shared belief that government can and should work better. Join them for a conversation about how leadership, policy, and institutional culture collide in the real world of public service. Moderated by Professor Christina Kinane, this discussion will offer an inside look at what it means to govern responsibly when partisanship runs high and trust in institutions runs low. Lunch will be served

PLEASE RSVP AT THIS LINK TO RESERVE LUNCH  by noon on Friday, October 31.

This event is open to the Yale community and is being co-sponsored by the Millstone Fellowship in Public Service program, the Tobin Center for Economic Policy, and the Institution for Social and Policy Studies (ISPS) at Yale University.
