TC President Susan Fuhrman introduced Iceland’s President, Olafur Ragnar Grimsson (center), to Columbia University’s Annual World Leaders Forum in September. Also welcoming Grimsson was TC’s Health and Behavior Studies Department Chair John Allegrante. The evening before, TC formally signed a partnership agreement with Iceland’s Reykjavik University, where Fuhrman appeared as commencement speaker last spring and where Allegrante served as Acting Dean of RU’s School of Health and Education and collaborated with faculty on public health research.
