Next Tuesday French Consul General Romain Serman will give a lecture in 238 HRCB at 2:00 p.m. Romain Serman is the youngest consul in the French diplomatic corps, but already has an impressive background in diplomacy. After graduating from the École nationale d'administration he began his career at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in charge of Franco-Algerian relations. He went on to spend four years at the United Nations before being called back to the Élysée to work for President Sarkozy on African diplomacy. Since arriving at his new post in San Francisco in August, M. Serman has expressed his desire to continue President Sarkozy's efforts to improve Franco-American relations, which will be the subject of his address on Tuesday.
Also coming up next week is another French film at International Cinema, Lourdes. It will be shown Wednesday at 5:30, and Saturday at 11 and 7.
Bon weekend!
