On April 17, the seniors in the Military Leadership/National Security Studies Certificate Program were recognized at the annual
Wilson Center Awards banquet.
This event has been traditionally a highlight of the year for the Wilson Center,
a time to recognize accomplishments of both alumni in public service and the seniors of the Military Leadership/National Security
Studies and Public Service Certificate Programs.
The 2009 banquet honored the fourth group of outstanding young men to complete the Military Leadership/National Security Studies Certificate
Program. This program is now recognized as a minor, and is so noted on the transcripts of students who complete
the requirements.

and Dr. Walter M. Bortz III, H-SC President, are listed below. Additional banquet pictures
