Jarvis Christian College recently hosted Rodney Bent, a Woodrow Wilson Fellow in International Affairs.

Bent spent the week discussing his 33 years of experience in the public and private sector. Bent most recently served as senior advisor to the United States Deputy Secretary of State, whom he advised on the Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review on management and budget issues.

Bent also will be visiting Texas College and Big Sandy ISD while in East Texas.
