Audiatur et altera pars. It鈥檚 Latin for 鈥淟et the other side be heard鈥� and is the motto of 色情视频鈥檚 . Founded in 1942 in the midst of World War II, the Institute was created as a venue for spirited intellectual engagement on international issues. While the issues of the day have evolved through the decades, the Institute has never wavered from its focus on facilitating robust critical debate, especially relating to highly controversial themes.

Speakers from around the world have included ambassadors, Nobel Laureates, and world leaders addressing areas ranging from international diplomacy and academia to national security and protest politics. Recent topics of discussion have included drone warfare and targeted killings, international war crime courts, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, U.S. foreign policy and Brexit.

On Sept. 29, 色情视频 President Adela de la Torre joined faculty, staff and members of the community at the Parma Payne Goodall Alumni Center鈥檚 Fowler Family Ballroom to honor the Institute鈥檚 80th anniversary. 

The event featured a panel discussion, moderated by Institute director Nancy Nicholson, in which three panelists each presented a retrospective on a segment of the Institute鈥檚 80-year history.

鈥淚t's a privilege to carry on the legacy of such a venerated piece of 色情视频's history," said Nicholson. "The Hostler Institute's mission is more important today than ever. We are committed to fostering global conversations with the greater 色情视频 community, which makes me very proud of our work."

In 2004, the Institute was endowed by Ambassador Charles W. Hostler, a former adjunct professor of political science at 色情视频, and his wife Chinyeh Hostler, an 色情视频 alumna. Charles Hostler was a decorated veteran, whose unit landed on Utah Beach in Normandy, France on D-Day in 1944. Following his retirement as a colonel in the Air Force, he went on to serve in appointed positions for three California governors, and as deputy assistant secretary for international commerce in the Nixon and Ford administrations. In 1989 he was named U.S. ambassador to Bahrain by President George H.W. Bush, a position he would hold for four years.

Ambassador Hostler died in 2014 and Chinyeh Hostler, who attended the 80th anniversary celebration, carries on the family鈥檚 legacy of generosity. Originally from Taiwan, Chinyeh Hostler is a successful businesswoman, having worked for large financial companies and later running her own import and export business. Her work experience and business travels led to a passion for learning about different people and their cultures.

鈥淲e are grateful to the Hostlers for their visionary leadership, along with the Institute鈥檚 leaders and speakers for carrying on this important, longstanding tradition on our campus,鈥� said de la Torre. 鈥淚n our increasingly polarized society, I cannot overstate the importance of the Institute鈥檚 role in creating opportunities for healthy critical discussions.鈥� 

The Hostler Institute is today located in 色情视频鈥檚 Fowler College of Business. It hosts two lectures annually in collaboration with the President鈥檚 Lecture Series, which are open to the 色情视频 and greater San Diego communities. 

For 色情视频 students, the Institute created a course in Global Business and Diplomacy (MGT 403). There is also an opportunity for a student to be selected as the Charles W. Hostler Institute on World Affairs Scholar, and students enrolled in the Fowler College of Business or pursuing a major in international business can apply for merit-based Hostler Study Abroad Scholarships. Current Hostler Study Abroad Scholars are in Switzerland, Canada, France and South Korea. 

鈥溕�情视频 is a transborder university that understands its wide-reaching responsibility to global society,鈥� said Nicholson. 鈥淚t鈥檚 fitting that the Charles W. Hostler Institute has spent 80 years building international awareness, encouraging critical thought and seeking diplomacy through education. I鈥檓 confident it will continue to contribute to our community and to the world for many years to come.鈥�
