Selected alumni of The Harriman Institute

Jonathan E. Sanders
RI '76
Writer/Editor
Former Moscow Correspondent, CBS News
"The Russian Institute was a warm, caring home inside a sprawling university all too often cold and bureacratic, despite its best intentions. Inculcation of a spirit of critical-mindedness was the hallmark of the Russian Institute. The informal cross-fertilization of ideas, discussions in the halls with visiting scholars and students from a wide variety of disciplines, and intense "brown bag" lunchoeons...these were the highlights of my graduate school days."

Cynthia A. Roberts
HI '92
Adjunct Associate Professor
School of International and Public Affairs, Columbia University
Associate Professor of Political Science
Hunter College
City University of New York
"Columbia set the standard when I went through, partly because the richness of the Soviet area studies program was combined with a broad and rigorous foundation in political science and even more so because of the exceptional quality of the faculty."

Alexander Dallin

"Having experienced the Institute in all possible positions--as a student, faculty member, director, and visiting scholar--I can testify that they're all enjoyable. Of all academic associations, it certainly had the greatest impact on me and my career."

Franklin E. Gill
RI '59
Former Research Professor of Law
The University of New Mexico School of Law
"The experience of working closely with scholars such as John Hazard, Philip Mosely and Henry Roberts was indeed a highlight of my life and provided, I believe, a solid basis for my work in various aspects of international law and relations in later years."
