On Friday, June 15th, thirteen COB students were guests of the US Embassy in Greece.  These students were part of the first ever Summer Study Abroad program in Greece that was organized by Prof. Art Lekacos and Dr. Richard Laskowski.  The event was facilitated by Ms. Dimitra Lucas who is with the Public Diplomacy section at the Embassy.  The students were briefed by Ms. Christie Milner,  an Economic Officer whose area of expertise is on the economy and provided background on  the “Greek Economic Crisis” and the“Upcoming Greek Election” (that took place two days later on June 17th).  Following Ms. Milner’s talk the students engaged in a question and answer session.
