THE NATHAN HALE Foreign Policy SOCIETY
	2004 Foreign Policy Essay Contest As the first large project in Nathan Hale's outreach program, we recently organized international secondary school and university-level NHFPS Essay Contests.  The subject of our 2004 contest for both groups of participants was this: Place yourself in the position of the President's National Security Advisor, with the opportunity to propose a new initiative or a substantial change in an area of American foreign policy. What proposal would you submit to the President, and how would you argue for it? The winners of this year’s contest were Zachary Constantino, Peter E. Jeydel of Princeton University, and Nathan Hale of Columbia University. Essays were limited to 1,000 words and judged on the quality of arguments that authors displayed in arguing for their proposals. Connie Chung, a recent Harvard graduate teaching in the San Francisco Bay area, served as the national chair of our essay contest committee.  For more information about our outreach programs, including future essay contests, please email Connie by clicking on her name above.  You may also email our National Director, Justin Abold, or our President, Patrick Belton.  We look forward to your participation!
