Israeli political scholar and pollster Tamar S. Hermann, professor of political science and dean of academic studies at Open University of Israel, will discuss Israeli public opinion on the Middle East conflict and ways to resolve it when she visits the Mancheski Executive Seminar Room in the Lender School of Business Center at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 9.
Hermann conducts public opinion polls for the Tami Steinmetz Center for Peace Research at her alma mater, Tel Aviv University in Israel. She also writes a monthly column, "The Peace Index," in Haaretz and the Herald Tribune.
