Description:
Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets continues the Cutchins Leadership Lecture Series with General Mark A. Welsh III on Thursday, April 5, 2018 at Burruss Auditorium on the campus of Virginia Tech.

General Mark A. Welsh III is a former chief of staff for the U.S. Air Force and now dean of the Bush School of Government and Public Service at Texas A&M University. During his more than 40 years of service in the U.S. Air Force, Welsh developed his leadership skills both at home and around the world. He will use those experiences to speak about the continued importance of ethical leadership in a globally connected world, both in the military and in the public and private sectors, said Major General Randal Fullhart, commandant of the Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets, which sponsors the lecture series.

Welsh’s military career included assignments as commandant of the U.S. Air Force Academy, associate director of military affairs at the Central Intelligence Agency, commander of U.S. Air Forces in Europe and NATO’s Air Command, and chief of staff of the Air Force.

Welsh retired from the Air Force on July 1, 2016, and joined the Bush School as dean and the Edward & Howard Kruse Endowed Chair. The Bush School offers graduate programs in public service.
