The Goldstone Forum is an annual lecture by leading figures in business, political and academic arenas. PPE students will have the opportunity to meet privately with these speakers to discuss the legal, ethical, political and economic issues they are studying with people who are confronting these same issues in their work.

For the 2007-8 academic year, the speaker will be Steve Levitt. For details, see this page.

The Goldstone Forum is made possible by Steven F. Goldstone, former chairman of Nabisco Group Holdings and Penn graduate (C '67) in Political Science. The Goldstone Fund, created from his gift to the PPE program at Penn, supports endowed teaching fellowships for faculty from each of the three departments that participate in PPE, underwrite visiting lecturers and conferences, aids PPE majors who are conducting a major research project for their capstone seminar and provides for additional teaching assistants as the program continues to grow.
