Michael Atkinson: Public Service in Ordinary & Extraordinary Moments
VIRTUAL
State of Democracy Lecture: Michael K. Atkinson, former Inspector General of the Intelligence Community, will discuss "Public Service in Ordinary and Extraordinary Moments.”
Michael K. Atkinson is a Syracuse University alum and was
the U. S. Inspector General of the Intelligence Community, who was dismissed by
President Trump in April 2020. In September 2019, he alerted Congress to a
whistleblower complaint regarding the president's communications with Ukraine,
pressing for an investigation into Joe Biden and his son - the resulting
scandal led to President Trump's impeachment.
