The Alexander Hamilton Society (AHS) is pleased to announce the appointment of Cherise Britt as its new Program Manager, effective immediately. Founded in 2010, AHS is a non-profit, non-partisan, national organization that fosters constructive debate on basic principles and contemporary issues in American foreign, economic, and national security policy. AHS members share a conviction, rooted in the history of the last century, that the world is a better, safer, and more prosperous place when the United States is willing and able to lead. Members take seriously the commitment to maintaining the moral authority and material strength on which that leadership rests.

Cherise will be responsible for managing AHS's national network of chapters and communications. She will be the primary point of contact for all students, advisers, and speakers. As program manager, she will oversee all chapter event planning processes and lead the planning for our national events, including the annual student leadership conference. Over the next few weeks, she will be reaching out to chapter leaders to introduce herself to the broader AHS community. She can be reached directly at [email protected] and 202-559-7389.

The Alexander Hamilton Society (AHS), an independent, non-partisan, non-profit organization located in Washington, D.C., dedicated to renewing American foreign, economic, and national security policy, seeks a full-time Program Manager to carry out a variety of program, communications, and administrative assignments related to our chapters. He or she will report to Gabriel Scheinmann, AHS Executive Director.

Founded in March 2010, AHS (www.hamsoc.org) is a membership-based educational organization—not a think tank or an advocacy group—dedicated to promoting constructive debate on basic principles and contemporary issues in foreign, economic, and national security policy. As we build a national network of outstanding students, faculty, and professionals, we sponsor debates at colleges and universities, as well as in major cities; assist younger people in career development; help those in senior positions to identify promising candidates for hiring and promotion; and provide further opportunities for our members to flourish intellectually, professionally, and personally.

In less than six years, we have established student-run chapters at over 50 top American colleges and universities as well as professional chapters in New York, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, and Miami. During 2015, we sponsored 217 events nationwide, with an aggregate attendance approaching 9,600.

The Program Manager will have an unusual opportunity, for someone in a junior position, to influence the development of the organization, gain experience across a number of functions, interact with senior academics and practitioners, and work with students and faculty nationwide in a range of disciplines. Those committed to AHS’s mission, genuinely interested in our areas of focus, who possess an entrepreneurial spirit, and who approach their work with persistence, cheerfulness, and sincerity will find working at AHS an excellent opportunity.

AHS founder Dr Aaron Friedberg, Professor of Politics and International Affairs at Princeton University, was awarded the Professor M.L. Sondhi Prize for International Politics for 2013 on May 5, 2015 at New Delhi Habitat’s Gulmohar Hall; this is a prize annually awarded by the Professor M.L. Sondhi Memorial Trust and the M.L. Sondhi Institute for Asia-Pacific Affairs.

Trustees Lalit Mansingh and Madhuri Santanam Sondhi honoured him with a shawl, and presented him with an inscribed plaque and cheque for Rs 2,00,000, while Prof Shivaji Sondhi of Princeton read out the citation. The Chief Guest, former Minister Dinesh Trivedi, remembered the enthusiasm and energy of the late Prof Sondhi, and urged the audience to take note of India’s continuing contribution to learning and knowledge.
