Conflict of interest edit

At least one major contributor to this article appears to have a close personal or professional connection to the topic, and thus to have a conflict of interest. Conflict-of-interest editors are strongly discouraged from editing the article directly, but are always welcome to propose changes on the talk page (i.e., here). You can attract the attention of other editors by putting {{request edit}} (exactly so, with the curly parentheses) at the beginning of your request, or by clicking the link on the lowest yellow notice above. Requests that are not supported by independent reliable sources are unlikely to be accepted.

Please also note that our Terms of Use state that "you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation." An editor who contributes as part of his or her paid employment is required to disclose that fact. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:10, 26 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Request edit on 27 June 2017 edit

Suggested edit: The Schar School has a new website, and links in the Wiki page should be updated to reflect this. The new site is: schar.gmu.edu. Previously, it had been spgia.gmu.edu. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.174.237.197 (talk) 18:44, 27 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Founding of the Schar School edit

In noting that the Schar School of Public Policy at George Mason University "was founded as an institute in 1990 and developed into the graduate-level School of Public Policy (SPP) in 2000," I can personally verify that as fact. The the International Institute and it's accompanying Master of Arts in International Transactions academic program were established that year by the Provost and approved by the Board of Visitors. I submitted the initial program concept to the Provost and subsequently, at her behest, led the curriculum design group. I was an Assistant Professor at GMU at the time. I subsequently taught a graduate course in in the program, comparative international science & technology policies, in 1990-91 and 91-92.
