Admiral Bobby Inman, former Director of the National Security Council and Deputy Director of the CIA, held a two hour seminar on Wednesday, October 4, 2017. He discussed his own career in the intelligence community as well as sharing stories about his involvement in some of the more important events in recent American history. The topics he addressed included North Korea, Russian involvement in the 2016 U.S. elections, and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. Additionally, he shared some observations about the four Presidents he served under (Ford, Carter, Reagan, GHW Bush) and how they dealt with national security issues and policies. Several students remained afterward to continue the discussion.
Admiral Inman is currently the Lyndon B. Johnson Centennial Chair in National Policy at the LBJ School of Public Affairs, University of Texas.
