D/CIA Petraeus Delivers Keynote Address at George Mason University Dedication
Director Petraeus told the audience of about 300 attendees: “Intellectual rigor, bold innovation, and healthy skepticism are central to our respective professions. Both communities seek to better understand the complex forces and trends that shape the world around us. And both strive to put what we learn to good use for our country and the world.”
