    Case bets on business to heal health care system

    By Julie Appleby, USA TODAY

    He admits that some people think he's crazy.

    But AOL co-founder Steve Case is gambling that the current buzz on how to fix the nation's healthsystem more consumer choice and responsibility is not a passing fad, but a long-termbusiness opportunity.

    Joining him today in launching a private f irm aimed at buying up promising companies that offer arange of consumer-focused health services are several investors, including former secretary ofState Colin Powell.

    Called Revolution Health Group, it is the first public business venture for Powell since he steppeddown in January. "There's no part of American life right now that is more in need of imaginationand new ideas than health care," Powell said Wednesday.

    Health care currently accounts for more than 15% of the economy, with spending on medicalservices rising at several times the rate of growth of both the economy and wages. Rising costsare among the biggest challenges facing the industry, and one that employers are tryingdesperately to contain.

    Case's idea comes amid rising interest in so-called consumer-driven health care, a broad termthat has translated into employers passing along higher deductibles and other costs to insuredworkers.

    In the short term, the move cuts employer's costs. The theory is that workers who have to usemore of their own money to buy health care will shop around, seek quality and forgo unnecessary

    care, which will slow growth in health spending. Critics, such as Consumers Union, say the movewon't slow spending much and might cause some people to give up needed care.

    One of the gaps in the effort to promote consumerism in health care is providing patients with theinformation on price and quality they need to make choices on how to spend their health caredollars.

    For example, Powell says shoppers looking for a TV can go on the Internet and "within a secondand a half, get hundreds of choices of where to buy," along with information about the TV, theseller and any additional charges. "Why should that not apply to health care?" he asks.

    Case says his company intends to buy firms that offer such data. Revolution Health Group ispartly owned by a private holding firm called Revolution that Case founded in April. Powell and

    other investors own the remainder.

    While he won't name the companies, Case says he has agreements to buy seven firms, whichprovide a range of services.

    Dj vu

    Consumers, he says, ought to be able to get health care in convenient retail locations, and haveonline access to information about doctors, hospitals and medical conditions, their personal healthrecords and their health care finances.

    "It reminds me of 20 years ago when we were starting AOL," Case says. "Half the people toldme, 'You're crazy.' But we believed that someday, people would embrace interactive services. Ilook at the health care situation, and it feels like dj vu all over again."

    Although the ideas might sound simple, making them work has proved more difficult.

    "A lot of people have broken their swords in this area," says David Blumenthal, director of theInstitute for Health Policy at Massachusetts General Hospital.

    Case, he says, is making a bet.

    "He bet on AOL, and he was right," Blumenthal says. "He bet on AOL Time Warner, and he waswrong. We'll have to see which of those two Steve Case modes he's playing with now."

    Hospitals, doctors and other medical providers have long resisted efforts to gather and discloseinformation about quality and price. Years of effort have gone into finding ways to get the healthcare system into the computer age, but standardization still eludes the industry.

    Economist Paul Ginsburg at the Center for Studying Health System Change says an organizationsuch as Revolution Health might have the capital to help solve some of those problems. Case, forexample, has said he will put $500 million of his own money into Revolution, the parent company.

    But success for Case's company doesn't guarantee that the health system will be transformed."The much bigger question, is, 'Will this help society solve its health care problems?' " Ginsburgsays. "It's way too early to make a judgment."

    Case says some companies in his portfolio will help reduce health spending by offering lower-cost

    services or by streamlining the purchase of health insurance.

    In addition to Powell, the firm's other investors include Franklin Raines, former CEO of mortgagegiant Fannie Mae, who resigned in December after federal regulators questioned accountingmethods; Jim Barksdale, former CEO of Netscape; Miles Gilburne, a venture capitalist whoworked with AOL; and Steve Wiggins, who founded Oxford Health Plans, a managed carecompany in New York that was a Wall Street darling until it suffered large losses in 1998.Wiggins stepped down in February that year.

    A privately held online health information company has bought former

    AOL chairman Steve Case's Revolution Health in a deal the NY Times

    said was worth $300 million.

    The acquirer, Waterfront Media, runs the Everyday Health Network of

    sites. Together with Revolution Health, the combined company should

    generate enough online traffic to compete with the likes of WebMD.

    Staff writer Tom Heath reported that talks between the companies were

    underway early last month. At the time, Waterfront was mum.

    Here's what Waterfront said in a release this morning.

    Waterfront Media CEO and co-founderBenjamin Wolinwill remain chief

    executive officer of the new company. Steve Case, chairman and CEO of

    Revolution Health Group, and an additional member of Revolution

    Health's board of directors to be named later, will join the Waterfront

    Media board of directors. The company will keep the name Waterfront

    Media, and will operate all sites under the Everyday Health Network. The

    company will remain headquartered in Brooklyn, NY. Doug McCormick,

    former CEO of Lifetime TV and iVillage, will remain chairman of the

    company. Mike Keriakoswill remain president of the company. Financial

    terms were not disclosed.

    Case will continue to have a hand in other health ventures, according to

    the release:

    Revolution LLC-- the parent company of Revolution Health -- will

    continue to maintain its broad health portfolio through investments inRediClinic, a leading convenient care provider;Extend Health, a

    leading provider of defined contribution programs; Brainscope, which

    develops breakthrough technology that assesses brain function at the

    initial point of care; andSparkPeople, an online community that

    empowers users to change their lives for the better.

    Powell to Join Storied Venture

    Capital Firm

    By Jonathan Krim

    Washington Post Staff Writer

    Wednesday, July 13, 2005; D01

    After four decades of military and government service,

    former secretary of state Colin L. Powell is pursuing a new

    trail of business entrepreneurship.

    Powell said yesterday that he is joining Kleiner Perkins

    Caufield & Byers, one of Silicon Valley's most storied

    venture capital firms, to work with young executives on

    leadership and help their businesses grow worldwide.

    Powell, 68, will be a limited partner, remaining in the Washington area but traveling to California or

    teleconferencing frequently to confer with companies that receive seed funding from the firm. Like other

    venture capital groups, Kleiner Perkins plays an ongoing role in the management of companies in its stable.

    In Kleiner Perkins, the retired four-star general and former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is joining a

    33-year-old Silicon Valley institution that has backed some of the biggest names in technology, including

    Amazon.com Inc., America Online Inc., Sun Microsystems Inc. and Compaq Computer Corp.

    Powell said he was energized by a recent visit to the Mountain View, Calif., headquarters of search giant

    Google Inc., in which Kleiner Perkins also invested.

    "When I walked into the cafeteria area [to give a speech], there were about 1,000 people there," Powell said

    in an interview. "And I think I increased the average age by about 15 years."

    Powell said he also spoke with Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page, discussing leadership,

    organization and "scaling up" a global business.

    "People hunger for this," said John Doerr, one of Kleiner Perkins's senior partners. "They hunger for the kind

    of leadership, wisdom, confidence and inspiration that Colin Powell brings."

    Powell has some roots in technology, having served on the board of America Online before its merger with

    Time Warner Inc. It was in that capacity that he met Doerr, who began pursuing Powell soon after he stepped

    down as secretary of state.

    Powell said he was flattered by an array of new career opportunities but chose Kleiner Perkins for the chanceto work with young entrepreneurs.

    Powell said he is particularly interested in health care, search, energy and networking ventures. He recently

    joined a group of executives as investors and board members of Revolution Health Group, billed as a new

    kind of consumer health care company founded by former America Online chief executive Steve Case.

    He added that he wants his work to "have a humanitarian aspect," helping companies bring their technologies

    to developing countries to help alleviate poverty.

    Powell said he bought his first personal computer in 1993, after he left the Army. He said the power of

    computers was especially evident during Operation Desert Storm in 1991, during which global positioning

    technology played a prominent role.

    Now, Powell said, he has three computers, multiple fax machines and two cell phones in his home office and

    is "deeply into" online shopping.

    Powell said he plans to continue his other business activities. He is active on the lecture circuit and is a

    partner in one of the groups bidding to purchase the Washington Nationals baseball team.

    He has no plans, he said, to run for political office.

    Colin Powell Joins Venture Capital FirmBy GARY RIVLIN

    SAN FRANCISCO, July 12 - Most everyone you meet in Silicon Valley, or so it sometimes seems, dreams of joining a top venture capital firm, a

    job that brings prestige and the power to finance promising start-ups - and, not incidentally, typically pays in the millions of dollars.

    Apparently even former secretaries of state sometimes harbor those dreams.

    On Wednesday, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, perhaps Silicon Valley's most famous venture firm, will announce that former Secretary of

    State Colin L. Powell is joining the firm as a part-time partner. Mr. Powell acknowledged in an interview Tuesday that he has had any number of

    tempting job offers since leaving the State Department in January, but that the chance to work as a venture capitalist at Kleiner Perkins seemed

    too enticing to turn down.

    "I'm fascinated by what the company has done and is doing now," Mr. Powell said of Kleiner Perkins. "It's on the forefront of bringing along new

    technologies and bringing along entrepreneurs who are changing the world as we know it."

    That the partnership turned to someone who has cut so large a figure on the world's stage underscores the increasingly global nature of venture

    investing.

    Yet, the looming question is what the 68-year-old Mr. Powell, who served in the military for 35 years and rose to the rank of four-star general,

    can offer a venture capital firm that specializes in the financing of biotechnology start-ups and technology companies like Google and NetscapeCommunications, to name two of its more successful investments.

    The answer, several Kleiner Perkins partners said, is that he will serve as a coach to its entrepreneurs and an in-house expert on international

    affairs, a valuable skill when even fledgling technology companies are increasingly international, employing programmers abroad and sell into

    overseas markets. Kleiner Perkins, based in Menlo Park, Calif., also anticipates more investments outside the United States.

    "General Powell has a global perspective," said Ray Lane, a Kleiner Perkins partner and former president of the giant database company Oracle.

    "So we think he will be very helpful in helping us figure out what we should do overseas, and how we do it, and what we should eventually invest

    in."

    Including Mr. Powell, Kleiner Perkins has added five new partners since the start of the year, pointing to a resurgence in venture investing, which

    serves as the lifeblood for technology-oriented start-ups in Silicon Valley and elsewhere.

    "The pace is really picking up in the venture industry," said John Doerr, also a Kleiner Perkins partner.

    Venture capitalists typically spend most of their days listening to entrepreneurs seeking to raise millions of dollars or helping companies in which

    they have already invested.

    Mr. Powell, who will maintain his residence in McLean, Va., and work out of a nearby office in Alexandria, will not devote much time to either

    of those activities, Mr. Doerr said. Nor will he regularly take part when partners gather for their weekly meeting, though attendance is considered

    mandatory inside most firms.

    Instead, Mr. Powell and his new partners said he will contribute by meeting periodically with companies that are part of the Kleiner portfolio, to

    help their executives work through things like organizational issues.

    "This man, I think more than any other," Mr. Doerr said, "has deep insights and offers strategic advice into leadership. And building and

    developing teams. And winning even you're up against formidable opponents or challenges."

    Neither Kleiner Perkins nor Mr. Powell would provide details about his financial arrangement with the firm, though it is common knowledge in

    the venture capital world that Kleiner Perkins partners divide 30 percent of profits before passing on the rest to investors.

    Mr. Powell will meet with his partners once every three months - and be available by phone and e-mail message when necessary - to offer advice

    on prospective investments.

    "They're interested in me giving them a sense of the kind of world in which we'll be doing business in the years ahead and to help them assess the

    potential of various companies that have come to their attention and how they fit in this world," Mr. Powell said.

    Though he has spent most of his work life in a military uniform, Mr. Powell stressed that he was "not a total rookie in this business." He served

    for four years on the board of America Online, starting in the mid-1990's, he noted, and also oversaw the modernization of an outdated State

    Department computer system. "I also intend to weigh in with technology advice from time to time," he said.

    One thing he will not do, both Mr. Powell and his partners said, is lobby on behalf of any of the Kleiner-financed firms. But Paul S. Kedrosky, a

    professor at the University of California, San Diego, who studies venture capital, said Mr. Powell's network of relationships at home and abroad is

    the most plausible explanation for Kleiner's decision to enlist him.

    "There are any number of coaches who would happily sign up with Kleiner in a limited role given the payoff," Mr. Kedrosky said. "But it sure

    helps if you've got a coach who can pick up a phone and get Donald Rumsfield on the line." Security is currently a hot area for venture investing,

    Mr. Kedrosky noted - and one in which Kleiner Perkins "has been underinvested in relative to other large venture firms."

    Mr. Powell acknowledged that money played a role in his decision to work at Kleiner, a firm that over the years has made its partners rich by

    financing companies like Sun Microsystems, Amazon.com, Genentech, Compaq Computer and America Online.

    "Any time you can align yourself with a company with that kind of track record, that's good," Mr. Powell said. "But I also had seven good years

    out of government, where I did succeed in amassing enough of a personal estate that I'm not at the mercy of government pensions. So money

    wasn't the principal motivator."

    Between 1993, when he stepped down as the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and 2001, when President Bush named him secretary of state,Mr. Powell was a sought-after lecturer, routinely making tens of thousands of dollars for a speech.

    Kleiner Perkins is not the only commercial venture that Mr. Powell has joined since stepping down as secretary of state. He is also an investor

    and board member of Revolution, a health care holding company started by Stephen M. Case, a founder of America Online.

    Mr. Powell is also part of a group trying to purchase the Washington Nationals baseball team and is involved with a number of nonprofit groups.

    "The nice thing about this arrangement with Kleiner Perkins is it allows me time for these other activities," he said.

    Overview and History Bio of General Colin L. Powell Advisory Council Directors and Staff Job Opportunities

    General Colin L. Powell, USA (Retired)FOUNDER, ADVISORY COUNCIL CHAIR, AND DISTINGUISHED SCHOLAR

    General Colin L. Powell, founder, advisory council chair, and distinguished scholar of the Colin

    Powell Center for Policy Studies, was born and raised in the South Bronx. He graduated from The

    City College of New York in 1958 and went on to earn an MBA from The George Washington

    University, and to build a distinguished military career in Vietnam, Korea, and the United States,

    including service as the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs.

    General Powell was the first African American and the youngest officer ever to serve as Chairman

    of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the highest ranking officer in the United States military, under both

    President George H. W. Bush and President William Jefferson Clinton. In 1995, he wrote and

    published his autobiography, My American Journey, and in 1997, founded Americas Promise, a

    collaborative network that builds on the collective power of communities and volunteerism to assist

    American youth to meet their potential. In 2001, President George W. Bush appointed him

    Secretary of State, a position that placed him at the head of America's foreign policy and in which

    he served from 20012005.

    Center Orientation and History

    OVERVIEW

    The Colin Powell Center for Policy Studies at the City College of New York(CCNY) is a nonpartisan policy research center named for one of CCNYs

    most distinguished graduates. Established in 1997, the Center combines

    policy-related research and events with efforts to involve students directly in

    its programs and activities. The Colin Powell Center's mission is to develop a

    new generation of publicly engaged leaders from populations previously

    underrepresented in policy circles and to bridge the academic and

    policymaking spheres through research and programming.

    STUDENT-CENTERED APPROACHDistinctive among think tanks, the Colin Powell Center is devoted to a

    student-focused approach to its work. Students take an active role in all of the Center's core initiatives (see below). In particular, students

    develop and lead portions of the Center's programming, research, and events. As a result, students don't merely assist, they produce

    substantive work themselves.

    SCHOLARSHIPS AND RELATED PROGRAMMINGThe Center's scholarship programs provide unique resources to a diverse, select group of outstanding CCNY students. Through theprograms, the Center supports participating students with tuition assistance, internships, service opportunities, seminars, and events that

    offer them an active role in one or more of the Center's initiatives.The students, who represent a wide range of majors, develop both their

    leadership potential and public policy expertise. Read more

    CORE RESEARCH INITIATIVESThe Center's research activities are directed toward questions of current practical relevance and to ensuring that the real-world concerns

    of policymakers and practitioners inform the Center's research goals. The research activities are focused on three levels: locally in

    CCNY's Harlem community, nationally with regard to domestic policymaking, and internationally with regard to foreign policy-making

    processes and institutions. Initiative programs are selected toengage analysts and practitioners along with CCNY students and the

    campus community on matters of pressing policy concern. Read more

    SERVICE LEARNING AND INNOVATIONThrough its service-learning programs, the Colin Powell Center also supports educational innovation on the part of CCNY faculty. Service

    learning is a research-supported educational approach that encourages a synergy between classroom and community-based learning.

    Faculty trained in service-learning methodology incorporate community service into a course design as an essential part of the curriculum.Targeted service placements enable students to apply classroom lessons in practical settings. Simultaneously, the students' experiences

    in community-based service projects augment and enrich the classroom discussion. Read more

    Our HistoryThe Americas Promise Alliance

    grew out of the Presidents Summit

    for Americas Future in 1997. At

    that gathering in Philadelphia,

    Presidents Clinton, Bush, Carter

    and Ford (with Nancy Reagan

    representing President Reagan),

    challenged America to make

    children and youth a national

    priority.

    The Summit - which was alsoattended by nearly 30 governors,

    100 mayors, 145 community

    delegations, and prominent

    business leaders - was sponsored by the Points of Light Foundation, the Corporation for National and

    Community Service and United Way of America. These organizations were among the Founding Partners

    of the Americas Promise Alliance. Retired General Colin L. Powell became the Alliances Founding

    Chairman. Today, Alma Powell serves as Chair of the Alliance.

    Since 1997, the Americas Promise Alliance has grown to become the nations largest multi-sector

    Alliance focused on the well-being of young people. Today, the Alliance encompasses more than 105

    partner organizations representing the business community, nonprofits, communities and policymakers.

    When Hurricane Katrina displaced millions from their homes in 2005, the Alliance launched KatrinasKids an initiative that united local public and nonprofit sectors along with elected officials to ensure

    disadvantaged young people displaced by natural disasters receive the resources they need including

    the Five Promises.

    In 2006, the Alliance launched First Focus, a bipartisan advocacy organization committed to making

    children and their families a priority.

    Read the original Summit Declaration signed by the living presidents.

    In 2007, the Alliance celebrated its 10th Annivesary, including an event attended by Presidents Bush

    and Clinton. To learn more about how that milestone was recognized, please visit the 10th Anniversary

    DATELINE: MINNEAPOLIS, June 13

    Urban Ventures Leadership Foundation, together with Retired General Colin L.

    Powell, shared their vision for the Colin Powell Youth Leadership Center in

    South Minneapolis during a kickoff ceremony at Kix Soccer Field.

    (PHOTO: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000613/MNTU030 )

    Furthering the vision of America's Promise, the center will provide at-risk

    youth and adults a safe and structured place to develop leadership skills and

    other tools to help them succeed. It will be located north of Lake Street

    between Clinton and Fourth avenues and will serve the south central

    neighborhoods of Minneapolis. Led by General Powell, America's Promise - The

    Alliance for Youth, is building the character and strengthening the competence

    of youth by mobilizing the nation to fulfill Five Promises for young people:

    1. Ongoing relationships with caring adults

    2. Safe places with structured activities during nonschool hours

    3. Healthy start and future

    4. Marketable skills through effective education

    5. Opportunities to give back through community service

    "I am proud of Urban Ventures and all of its partners for establishing a

    safe place that young people can participate in structured activities during

    nonschool hours to gain leadership skills," said General Powell. "I am honored

    to play a part in this essential community initiative."

    Plans for the center include five recreational and educational areas such asfour full-length basketball courts, fitness center, state-of-the-art computer

    center, multi-use arts facility and space for ongoing education and

    job-preparation services. Completion of the center is pending strong corporate,

    political and individual support to raise the $16 million needed for the

    project.

    "Creating a top-notch facility in the Phillips and Central neighborhoods is

    proof of the rebirth of South Minneapolis," said Art Erickson, president of

    Urban Ventures Leadership Foundation. "It will give kids, their parents and the

    community at large something to be excited about and proud of for years to

    Page 1

  • 8/7/2019 Exhibits - General Colin Powell, Secretary of State

    40/85

    come. We want that pride to spread throughout our neighborhoods as we continue

    to prove how we can affect positive change in this area."

    A key partnership Urban Ventures hopes to forge through this project is

    between the corporate community and faith-based community. "In order to have a

    successful community, there needs to be both social and spiritual capital," said

    Erickson. "Working together, these entities can bring endless opportunities toat-risk young people. Building this center is a great place to start."

    Urban Ventures Leadership Foundation is a nonprofit, faith-based community

    development corporation serving the Phillips, Central, Bryant, Lyndale,

    Powderhorn and Whittier neighborhoods. Its mission is to build a successful

    community within the city by developing youth leadership, strengthening families

    and creating meaningful work opportunities.

    General Colin L. Powell was a professional soldier for 35 years and served

    as the twelfth Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff from 1989-1993. Since

    1997, he has served as chairman of America's Promise - The Alliance for Youth.

    America's Promise is an Alliance of nearly 1,000 communities and national

    organizations and not-for-profits. The movement is mobilizing all sectors of

    American life to build the character and strengthen the competence of the

    nation's youth.

    Colin Powell opens Southside youth

    center bearing his name

    Print this pageReprint rightsBy Vickie Evans-Nash , Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder

    October 13, 2007

    Former secretary of state praised the strength of U.S. diversity

    Former U.S. Secretary of State and retired general Colin Powell and his wife AlmaPowell joined over 300 people October 4 in South Minneapolis for the grand opening

    ceremony of the Colin Powell Youth Leadership Center. The 160,000-square-foot facility

    will be home to seven youth organizations offering a wide range of programs serving

    children from grades one through 12.

    It is one of many facilities across the country bearing Powells name, but he remains

    honored by each gesture. I am more than happy to have a school named after me, he

    said. Ive received lots of awards and medals in the course of my career. But what couldbe a better award a better recognition than to have your name on a school where

    young people will be educated and get ready to be leaders in the future?

    The Minneapolis facility is in part a result of Powells contact with Art Erickson,president and CEO of Urban Ventures Leadership Foundation, who approached Powell

    10 years ago with the idea for the school. Initially Powell thought the idea was a great

    undertaking.

    This is a pretty significant project, Powell said, but [Ericksons] passion was so

    great, so intense, that I said, Im going to go with this guy. [This project] was done byArt. It was done by the adults in this community the people in the community who

    believe in their children.

    During the interview preceding the ceremony, MSR thought we might learn something ofPowells thoughts on the upcoming election or his current views on the war in Iraq. But

    the general specifically requested a conversation focused on youth and education.

    Considering the state of affairs for African American children in the educational system,

    Powell believes that the Colin Powell Youth Leadership Center has a very important roleto play in addressing educational disparities. There is a particular problem in segments

    of the African American communityeither as a result of education patterns, housing

    problems [or] poverty problems, he said. The reality is that 50 percent of our young

    African American boys are not graduating high school.

    What does Powell believe is the root of the problem? The problem the African

    American community has is [that] there [are] still so many youngsters who are not in the

  • 8/7/2019 Exhibits - General Colin Powell, Secretary of State

    43/85

    proper nurturing environment. They are not in families that are cohesive, that are giving

    them what they need.

    Powell explained that, in an effort to address these unmet needs, he and his wife became

    involved in Americas Promise, an organization whose board Alma Powell also chairs.

    Americas Promise describes itself as the nations largest multi-sector collaborativededicated to the well-being of children and youth.

    Through organizations like Americas Promise, Powell says, We are reaching out to the

    communities around America and asking them, Look: Look at your children they

    need mentors. They need safe places. They need a healthy start in life. We need to givethese youngsters the education they need to be successful, and we also need to persuade

    them [that] they have to give back to others as they grow up.

    The MSR asked Powell how the very significant drop-out rate will affect the future ofAfrican Americans in leadership roles, especially since such great strides by Powell and

    others like him have been made in high-ranking political positions over the past decade.

    If they dont graduate high school, then they are not heading for the kind of success that

    youre talking about, he replied. And thats the problem that weve got to go after andgot to crack. Its not just their schools it is the family environment, the community

    environment, the political involvement, and its having more facilities like the one we are

    dedicating here today.

    Although our current educational system presents specific challenges to African

    American students, Powell doesnt see the situation as bleak. There are many young

    African American children coming along who are doing just fine, that are in great

    families. They are getting a good education.

    Im an honorary trustee of Howard University, he said. The students up at HowardUniversity, a Historically Black College, [are] terrific Theyre going to be leaders. And

    Ive watched in the course of my adult life, going from African Americans nowhere to

    African Americans just about everywhere.

    The website for the Colin Powell Youth Leadership Center states as one of their

    missions: The school [Cristo Rey Jesuit High School, one of the organizations included

    in the Center] will serve low-income families of any faith or culture who desire a

    religiously supportive, Christian value-centered, education for their children.

    Does Powell feel the Christian value-centered education will pose an obstacle for

    Minneapolis growing, religiously diverse immigrant population? The beauty of this

    community is that diversity can become a strength, he said.

    I was raised in a very diverse community in New York City There were no majorities

    in my neighborhood. You were either Black, Puerto Rican, West Indian, Eastern

    European, or something else. But we were taught in our public school system that youre

  • 8/7/2019 Exhibits - General Colin Powell, Secretary of State

    44/85

    all Americans. Come together, get along, and each of you can achieve your dreams and

    ambitions as long as youre willing to work for it study for it.

    Powell said that this message, which he believes resounds so uniquely in the U.S., is the

    message necessary for immigrant youth in Minneapolis. America is an immigrant

    country my parents were immigrants to this country and it is so important for us toappreciate that strength in our society: how we can take all of these folks no matter

    where they came from and within in a few years theyre Americans and their kids are

    playing baseball, and their kids are listening to rock music and hip hop.

    Theyre Americans. They never forget where they came from where their parentscame from but theyre now Americans, and thats our great strength. Very few

    countries can integrate that diversity like America can.

    SECTION: TRIAD; Pg. B5; LANITA WITHERS Campus Notebook

    LENGTH: 786 words

    Exam time is here, and in the spirit of reviewing everything we've learned,

    the Campus Notebook staff has put together a study guide (in no particular

    order) on the 2005 fall semester.

    - Headed to the Hill: Greensboro native Erskine Bowles has already served on

    Capitol Hill. Starting Jan. 1, he'll begin his tenure in Chapel Hill as the new

    president of the 16-campus UNC system.

    - Here today, here tomorrow: Guilford College President Kent Chabotar signed

    a contract extension that will keep him at the private college through 2010.

    - Belles of the ball: Bennett College hosted a sold-out gala featuring two

    guests you may have heard of: former President Bill Clinton and former U.S.

    Senator Bob Dole.

    - Hot, hot, hot: Several area schools were ranked in national publications,

    for everything from being socially conscious to student engagement to being a

    best value.

    In the "America's Hottest Colleges" edition of Newsweek magazine, Guilford

    College was touted as the hottest college for social consciousness, and Elon

    University noted for being the hottest for student engagement. The Princeton

    Review named UNCG a "best value."

    - Hot? Um, not: That's all we have to say about Appalachian State

    University's video to introduce their new chancellor to alumni. Miss it the

    first time around? Surf over to www.ifilm.com/ifilmdetail/2679633 or go to

    www.ifilm.com and search for "Appalachian" to check it out.

    - It's cold and I need a hot drink: Then plunk your dollars down on thecounter at Guilford College's Greenleaf coffeehouse in Mary Hobbs Hall on

    campus. The cooperative shop, which only serves fair trade coffees and teas,

    continues Guilford's long co-op history.

    - Rockin' with the chancellor: Dignified administrator + ear-pounding rock

    music = UNCG Chancellor Pat Sullivan's hip promo for campus radio station WUAG

    (103.1 FM). You got cool points for that one, Chancellor.

    - New digs: N.C. A&T fully opened Aggie Village this fall, a close to $32

    million residence hall complex. Guilford College christened a new set of student

    apartments and a community center.

    - A welcome addition: GTCC celebrated the grand opening of the new East

    Wendover campus.

    - Going up, up, up: How many buildings are being constructed at local

    institutions? Just to name a few, High Point University broke ground on the

    Jerry and Kitty Steele Sports Center, and Blessings Residence Hall is going up.

    UNCG is building a residence hall and work continues on the new humanities and

    research administration building. A&T has just about completed its new

    Alumni-Foundation Event Center.

    - Take a right at Renick: A&T bestowed a high honor on its chancellor, James

    C. Renick, when they named their new education building after him. Ground was

    broken this fall and construction on the building begins in the spring.

    - In the money: High Point University raised $47 million of a $100 million

    goal to rebuild the campus. A part of that total is a gift from Plato S. Wilson

    and his family. The undisclosed gift was the largest single gift in the

    university's 81-year history.

    - A beautiful (legal) mind: Elon University continued plans for the fall 2006

    launch of its law school. The school also played a role in luring the American

    Judicature Society to locate a law center in downtown Greensboro.

    - A good neighbor: Greensboro College hosted a City Council candidates debate

    before this fall's municipal election.

    - A new neighbor: Wake Forest University held the inauguration of its 13th

    president, Nathan O. Hatch, this October.

    - And, a look ahead: Announced in the old year, these A-list speakers are

    coming to local campuses in the new. Mark your calendars:

    - Activist and author Angela Davis will speak at UNCG as part of the

    university's Martin Luther King Jr. Day events at 7 p.m. Jan. 17 in Aycock

    Auditorium.

    - Ben Bradlee, the executive editor of The Washington Post during the

    Watergate era, will give a public lecture Feb. 27 at Elon University.

    - Former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell will speak at Elon University's

    Spring Convocation for Honors on April 4.

    - A&T will host New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman on April 5 as part

    of a public discussion on Friedman's book "The World Is Flat: A Brief History of

    the Twenty-first Century."

    Class dismissed. Have a great break.

    The holiday hibernation at the local colleges and universities is about to

    begin -- the perfect time for the Campus Notebook staff to take a vacation. The

    column will return Jan. 12. If you have items for our New Year's return, contact

    Colin Pow ell looks at leadership

    FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE DELIVERS THE DISTINGUISHED CARLSON LECTURE

    By Martha Coventry

    Oct. 4, 2006

    Americans are used to a stern and commandingpresence from the 65th Secretary of State. But theaudience at Northrop Auditorium on Tuesday, Oct.2, saw a slightly different image when Colin Powellstood behind the podium to give the HumphreyInstitute's Distinguished Carlson Lecture Series.

    Freed now from his role as a major player on theworld stage, Powell began with jokes aboutretirement, about having to give up his 747 to"Condi," and about his sudden change instatus--"One day you're Secretary of State, thenyou ain't," he quipped.

    Though after he loosened up the crowd of nearly5,000 people, he launched into a more serioustopic: What does it mean to be leader, both as anindividual and as a nation?

    For Powell to speak on leadership was a natural. Hemoved from second lieutenant after graduating from City College of New York tofour-star general to chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to Secretary of State. Hisleadership, said Humphrey Institute dean J. Brian Atwood in the introduction, is ofthe "integrative" kind. Powell not only provided on-the-ground leadership for histroops, but moral, international and now community leadership in his work withthe Colin Powell Youth Leadership Center in the Phillips and Central Minneapolisneighborhoods.

    "You can do all the interrogating you want inside the Geneva

    Convention," Powell told the audience. "Are we a nation oflaws and international conventions or are we not? We don't

    want the world to say, 'If you can cut corners, we can cut

    corners.'"

    "Leadership is leadership is leadership," said Powell, dashing any mystique."You're only there because of your followers. As a leader, you need a mission, youneed inspiration and you need to take care of the people who follow you. You setthem on a path to accomplish things, and they get the work done."

    Powell told stories of meetings with, among others, former Prime Minister of JapanJunichiro Koizumi and Mikhail Gorbachev. Great leaders, like these two men,"must face reality and not turn away," said Powell.

    Eventually, he spoke of America and what will set it apart in history as aleader--or not.

    "Iraq is the most defining moment of our time," he said. Leadership from both theadministration and the Iraq government is what is needed to turn the tide in Iraq.It is when your followers trust you, Powell believes, that you can truly become aleader.

    Before his talk, Powell had met for an hour of candid and challenging discussionwith Humphrey Institute graduate students chosen though a lottery. Theyprovided written questions for Powell to answer after his lecture. One asked,"What can the United States do to restore the world's faith and trust in us?"

    To answer, Powell turned to the most recent challenge to America's moralleadership in the world--the debate on how to treat terrorism suspects. Hereferred to the letter, mentioned earlier in the talk, that he wrote to Senator John

    McCain on Sept. 13 urging him not to redefine Common Article 3 of the GenevaConvention. "You can do all the interrogating you want inside the GenevaConvention," Powell told the audience. "Are we a nation of laws and internationalconventions or are we not? We don't want the world to say, 'If you can cutcorners, we can cut corners.'"

    As for the United States maintaining a world leadership based on trust, Powellsaid, "I think our reputation is recoverable--if we can show we're a nation of laws,if we can resolve Guantanamo and if we can just keep talking of the goodness thatstill exists [in our country.] We still have a reservoir of understanding and trust."

    Another question asked whether misstatements leading to war are ever justified.Clearly, Powell acknowledged, this referred to his Feb. 5, 2003, speech to theUnited Nations about Iraq's cache of weapons of mass destruction.

    "I sat in a room with 40-50 people in the intelligence services for four days," saidPowell. "Any information that didn't have multiple sources, I tossed aside. Whatwe chose was the best information we had. But we were dead wrong in light of thestockpiles [of WMD]. All of us believed they were there, but Iraq didn't havethem. I went forward [into that speech] believing we were right. It is never properfor anyone in power do anything other than put forward the facts."

    Powell ended his speech with a look at where U.S. foreign policy has gone well inthe past six years, like expanding NATO, quadrupling assistance to Africa andgetting Charles Taylor out of Liberia.

    "As you watch problems unfold, don't overlook successes," he told the audience."We lead a world that wants to be free. Have faith in this great country of ours."

    Curtis Carlson founded the Distinguished Carlson Lecture Series to honor HubertH. Humphrey and his dedication to innovative, creative and humane public serviceand to an educated citizenry. Powell was in good company--former lecturersinclude Bill Clinton, Elie Wiesel, Rigoberta Menchu and His Holiness the 14th DalaiLama, and true to the University's commitment to nonpartisanship, have rangedpolitically from George Bush and William F. Buckley, Jr., to Walter Mondale andGeraldine Ferraro.

    The Desert Sun (Palm Springs, California)

    Gen. Powell to cap series of speakers

    Former secretary of state likely to address Iraq issues on April 13

    The Desert Sun

    With America's Iraq policy at a crossroads, a speaker in the 2007 Desert Town

    Hall-Indian Wells lecture series is expected to bring nearly unparalleled

    insights about the situation. Gen. Colin Powell's appearance on April 13 will

    conclude the series.

    Ed Monarch, mayor of Indian Wells and president of the series board of

    directors, said the timing couldn't be better.

    With the United States re-examining its strategy in the Iraq war and a

    bipartisan commission releasing its recommendations Wednesday, Powell, former

    secretary of state in the Bush administration and former chairman of the Joint

    Chiefs of Staff, will most assuredly have insights to share, Monarch said.

    Powell recently made news when he said the conflict in Iraq has disintegrated

    into civil war.

    "I think we all interpreted Colin Powell as one of the more objective members

    of the Bush administration," Monarch said.

    "I think he will be very vocal, very direct and possibly critical of some of

    the current administration policies."

    This is the 15th season for the series, held again this year in the Emerald

    Ballroom of the Renaissance Esmeralda Resort and Spa in Indian Wells.

    A few series tickets remain, and tickets to individual lectures will go on

    sale later in December.

    "I'm very excited about the series," Monarch said. "I think it's going to be

    wildly received. We've sold out for so many years - that's the best tribute you

    can have."

    The speakers, and comments about them by Indian Wells Mayor and lecture

    series board president Ed Monarch:

    Carly Fiorina: Monday, Feb. 12

    The former CEO of HP, Fiorina is the author of "Tough Choices, A Memoir."

    Monarch: "It's very topical with what happened after she left HP, the

    Patricia Dunn case, the eavesdropping and wiretapping. (Fiorina) is going to

    give us a great slant on what corporate America looks like today."

    Tom Friedman: Wednesday, Feb. 28.

    New York Times columnist, author and reporter. The three-time Pulitzer

    Prize-winner's twice-weekly foreign affairs column is syndicated to 700 other

    newspapers worldwide.

    Monarch: "I'm a great fan of Tom Friedman's. I think he really came into his

    own with his last book, 'The World is Flat.' It's sort of a treatise on how the

    United States needs to see the rest of the world."

    Malcolm Gladwell: Thursday, March 29

    Author of No. 1 best-selling books "Blink" and "The Tipping Point"; named one

    of the 100 Most Influential People by Time Magazine in 2005.

    Monarch: "I think he's going to bring a perspective we're not used to hearing

    at the Town Hall series, something between pragmatism and futurism. I think he's

    just brilliant."

    Imagine you are asked to draw a single face to represent 2006 in Naperville,

    Lisle and Aurora.

    Well, you say, it should reflect the incredible kindness of those who help

    neighbors in need, who put themselves on the line for others, who are willing to

    make unfathomable sacrifices to benefit us all.

    Still, be careful how strong you carve those lines, you say, because the same

    face also must show the greed of some and the evil of others.

    There should be a sense of joy and accomplishment around the eyes, of course,

    but they should show sadness and pain, too.

    Should the mouth be curved in a smile for those who have won success and

    acceptance?

    In a frown for those who have come under fire and sometimes tilted at

    windmills?

    And what of the forehead? Wrinkled with age and worry? Smooth with the

    promise of youth and hope?

    Imagine you are asked to draw a single face to represent 2006 in our towns.

    It can't be done, you say.

    The Army sergeant became the fifth Naperville resident to be killed in Iraqwhen an explosive went off near his Humvee during combat operations Aug. 4 in

    Ramadi. A graduate of Neuqua Valley High School, he was assigned to the 1st

    Armored Division based in Friedberg, Germany.

    Sean Cardelli

    The 2004 Lisle High School graduate and Downers Grove resident was killed by

    hostile fire in early February while serving with the Marines in Fallujah, Iraq.

    He had been a starter on the Lisle wrestling team.

    Edwardo Lopez Jr.

    The Aurora Marine was killed in combat in Iraq during a particularly bloody

    period in October. The young sniper was on the front lines when he was shot inthe chest, his family said.

    George Obourn Jr.

    The Army specialist from Peoria, whose parents have lived in Naperville for

    three years, was killed in action in Iraq in early October, apparently while

    going through a building that military leaders thought was vacant.

    Myron Wentz

    The 1963 graduate of North Central College donated nearly $10 million that

    was key in convincing the school to build a concert hall and fine arts center on

    its downtown Naperville campus. The $26.5 million center will open in 2008 at

    Ellsworth Street and Chicago Avenue.

    Barbara Heller

    The honeymoon has ended for the Naperville Park District executive director

    who found her agency coming under increasing fire as the year ended over plans

    to build a $35 million recreation center in Frontier Park. Opponents say the

    park district has not sufficiently built its case.

    Chris Bockrath

    The 14-year-old Naperville boy was feted by the fire department in January

    after rescuing a friend who fell through the ice while pursuing a soccer ball on

    a not-very-frozen pond. "I was kind of hoping that because everyone was safe I

    wouldn't get grounded," he said.

    Kendra Davis

    The Naperville woman and wife of NBA player Antonio Davis found herself in

    the news for two separate incidents early in the year. In January, she was

    involved in a much-publicized verbal confrontation with another fan during a

    game between the Chicago Bulls and New York Knicks at the United Center. The day

    after that incident became news, a Monooka woman filed a complaint against her

    for an October 2005 incident in which she alleged Davis threw coffee on her.

    Jim Caulfield

    The Naperville Unit District 203 school board member made waves throughout

    the year. His argument for returning foreign language instruction to elementaryschools met with support, but the school board soundly rejected his plea for a

    one-year "tax holiday."

    Susan Donahue and Carolyn Berkheiser

    The two Naperville women are co-founders of a group called Ambassadors of

    Kindness Naperville. The group's roughly 40 members work individually and

    together to perform random acts of kindness, from delivering goodies to hospital

    workers and firefighters to praising school board members for their hard work.

    The Naperville city councilman found himself at the center of a controversy
