This past week on February 25 we were able to hear from Greg Carlisle, a local radio personality who works closely with the Governor and State Legislature. He showed us several videos that his company created which were enlightening on the topics of special needs children and Utah politics. It was a very informative meeting and we look forward to hearing more about autism at the upcoming meeting on March 3 when Mikle South will present to us.
Sven Wilson visits Rotary
Our speaker this week was Sven Wilson, professor and chair of the Political Science Department at BYU. Sven is also the visionary and founder of the Character First movement as highlighted on the Doug Wright show on KSL radio . For this week's meeting, Sven focused his thoughts on rejecting the populist movement circulating in today's politics and spoke about the necessity of a strong leader who shows compassion and isn't afraid to admit when he or she is wrong. Just another way to keep politics civil and promote goodwill in all aspects of life.
