Wright State University professor to speak

Written by , Posted in Living

Dr. Jonathan Winkler will present the final Center for the Study of Force & Diplomacy colloquium of the semester on Thursday from 3:30-5 p.m. Winkler’s discussion, “The Historical Roots of the Snowden Revelations,” will describe the steady development of the global communications grid.

Winkler believes the “grid” is overlooked and essential to understanding the recent revelations about the NSA’s monitoring of global communications. Winkler is an associate professor of history at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio. The colloquium will take place on the ninth floor of Gladfelter Hall.
