C. L. Max Nikias(@MaxNikias_):I am grateful to @vromans in Pasadena, CA for hosting the presentation of my book, “American Trojan: Leadership, Resilience, and the Renewal of Higher Education” published by @EncounterBooks. It was a privilege to discuss immigration and the American Dream, resilience as a foundation of leadership, and the rise of USC alongside the imperative for renewal in higher education. Signed copies are available at Vroman’s. My sincere thanks to the team for their hospitality and to all who attended.
