| Dr. Prabhakar J. Lavakare The Internationalization of Indian Education (Multi-Day Event) End Time 5:00 PM
Rollins College - Cornell Hall for the Social Sciences - (167)
Following the process of political and economic globalization, the higher education sector is also coming under this ambit under the title of “Internationalization of Higher Education”. The paper examines the meaning of internationalization of education in the global context. Mobility and aspirations of students is the crucial factor that has pushed this process worldwide. Results of survey carried across the world have been examined as relevant to different regions of the world. The rationale, the benefits and risks of internationalization as perceived by different regions of the world have been given in the Indian context. Indian approach to Internationalization of education, still very cursory and preliminary, is described and felt that it is inadequate and not perceived in the overall perspective of global education. |

Priceless - How One FBI Agent Went Undercover to Rescue the World's Stolen Treasures
Robert K. Wittman has been called a "living legend" (The Wall Street Journal) and "The most famous detective in the world (London Times). From an original copy of the bill of Rights to a Rembrandt self-portrait, former FBI Special Agent Wittman helped to recover more than $300 million in stolen art and cultural property from around the world. Instrumental in creating the FBI's Art Crime Team in 2005, he retired in 2008 after a 20-year career with the bureau. Wittman's best-selling memoir, Priceless - How I Went Undercover to Rescue the World's Stolen Treasures was published in 2010. Wittman today continues to provide art security, protection, and recovery services and an independent consultant in Philadelphia, where he was based with the FBI.
This event is produced by the Morse Museum in association with Rollins College.
