About the Tower Center
The °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â Tower Center was created to commemorate the late US senator, John G. Tower, whose life was dedicated to public service and education.
In the spirit of John Tower‘s commitment to educate and inspire a new generation of thoughtful leaders, the Tower Center seeks to bridge the gap between the world of ideas, scholarship and teaching, and the practice of politics. The primary mission of the Tower Center is to promote the study of politics and international affairs and to stimulate an interest in ethical public service among undergraduates. The Tower Center is an academic center where all parties and views are heard in a marketplace of ideas, and the Center will pursue its mission in a non partisan manner.
