The Hoover Institution‘s National Fellows and National Security Affairs Fellows have arrived for the current academic year. The National Fellows program allows participants to take time away from teaching to conduct research projects. The National Security Affairs program is open to members of the military and government agencies who want to pursue topics relevant to their branches of government and to the practice of diplomacy.
