The Mondale Lecturers

Walter F. Mondale's career in public service has spanned some of the most dramatic events in our nation's history. Since 1948 he has been at history's center, first as a young campaign organizer, then as Minnesota attorney general, U.S. Senator, vice president, presidential nominee, and U.S. ambassador to Japan.

The Mondale Lectures on Public Service were designed to foster discussion about the lessons of these historic events and encourage people to pursue public service.
