Wesley Clark to join UCLA campus
<snip> Professor Ronald Rogowski, interim vice provost for international studies, dean of the International Institute and director of the Burkle Center said Clark will be a valuable addition to the UCLA community.

"Wes Clark brings incisive and visionary analysis to questions of economic and security policy, particularly as they relate to future U.S. relations with Asia and Latin America," Rogowski said in a statement.

Clark said he has not ruled out taking on greater teaching responsibilities in the future, but said for the moment he is only planning on guest lecturing.

"I'll come in, take questions and challenge their assumptions," he said. "In the classroom, I expect (the students) to ask the challenging questions."

Patricia O'Brien, executive dean of the UCLA College, said she thought students would benefit from Clark's instruction.

"He really is a big-picture person, but he also brings real depth," she said. <snip> UCLA Daily Bruin

3. Senior Fellow
A great position because it will afford the General a platform for his writing, and a staff to handle his scholarly endeavors. He will be presenting the big picture view of the world and domestic policies. Perfect.

Gert and Wes really love living in Little Rock although the grandkids are in LA. With this new position, they can have the best of both worlds.
