"We are witnessing a generational change in the American political scene. This is the right time—and Wellesley is the right place—to help train a whole new group of young women leaders."
Madeleine K. Albright '59

The Madeleine Korbel Albright Institute for Global Affairs will educate young women for positions of leadership.
