DESCRIPTION:The Coalition of Multicultural Public Administration Students (
 COMPAS)\, The Middle Eastern Studies Program\, and Maxwell Executive Educa
 tion invite you to join us for a panel discussion on the misunderstanding 
 of current events in the Middle East created by biased media coverage.\n&n
 bsp\;\nWhether it's the reasons behind the "Arab rage" which resounded acr
 oss the region in response to a video mocking the prophet Mohammad or Iran

  bias\, and to address common misconceptions.\nThe panel will be led by hi
 ghly regarded journalist and public speaker Rami Khouri who will be joined
