"The extra curricular activity in which I was most engaged - debating - helped shape my interests in public policy."
Policy

Influence

Virtue

Education
"I went to public schools, and while Gary was, like most American cities, racially segregated, it was at least socially integrated - a cross section of children from families of all walks of life."
Life
"I, like many members of my generation, was concerned with segregation and the repeated violation of civil rights."
