What's the deal with the University of Pennsylvania?
John Legend went there, pictured with the university's president Amy Gutmann and NBC's Andrea Mitchell.
Amy Gutmann "has held board positions and advisory roles in numerous public and private organizations ranging from the Association of American Universities to the FBI to the United Nations."
Her husband, Michael W. Doyle is "an American international relations scholar best known as a theorist of the liberal “democratic peace” and author of “Liberalism and World Politics,” the 16th most cited article in the 100-year history of the American Political Science Review. He has also written widely on the comparative history of empires and the evaluation of UN peace-keeping."
