Carleton College will celebrate the beginning of its new academic year with an opening convocation presented by distinguished alumnus, Jimmy Kolker, Carleton Class of 1970, on Monday, Sept. 13, 2010, at 3 p.m. in the College’s Skinner Memorial Chapel. Since 2007, Kolker has served as the Chief of the HIV/AIDS Section at UNICEF’s New York headquarters, providing leadership and coordination of UNICEF’s work on HIV and AIDS at the global level. Entitled “Why Carleton Is a Good Place to Start Your International Career,” Kolker’s address will reflect on his international experiences, and how the preparation he received through a liberal arts education at Carleton helped forge the path for a career that, while still a student, did not yet exist, as diplomatic experts on AIDS were unheard of at the time he graduated 40 years ago. Kolker’s presentation is free and open to the public. | 14
