NSU Forum Luncheon with Andrea Mitchell - Wednesday, March 8, 2006

Nova Southeastern University invites you to lunch with one of NBC News' top political correspondents, Andrea Mitchell at the Tower Club in Fort Lauderdale from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.  Mitchell is the Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent for NBC News, a position she has held since 1994.  She reports on evolving foreign policy issues in the United States and abroad for all NBC News broadcasts, including "NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams," "Today" and on both CNBC and MSNBC.

In addition to reporting on a variety of foreign affairs issues in 2004, Mitchell also covered the 2004 presidential campaign for NBC News and was a regular panelist on MSNBC's "Hardball."  She was the first reporter to break the story that democratic presidential nominee Sen. John Kerry had chosen Sen. John Edwards as his vice presidential running mate.

Over the years, Mitchell has appeared on "Meet the Press" as a panelist and substitute host.  An acclaimed political reporter, she has also covered every presidential election since 1972.  In fact, during the 1988 Republican National Convention, she beat both the competition and presidential candidate George Bush with the announcement that Bush had chosen Dan Quayle to be his running mate.  She was also a panelist in the final Bush-Dukakis presidential debate.

A native of New York, Mitchell received a B.A. degree in English literature from the University of Pennsylvania where she currently serves as a Trustee, a member of the Executive Committee and Chairman of the Annenberg School Advisory Board.

Lunch will be held at the Tower Club in Fort Lauderdale and will take from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Individual Tickets are $50.00 each.  Sponsorship opportunities are available.  For further information about this event please call 954-262-2110 1-800-541-6682 ext. 22110.
