CONTENTS
The Fund for American Studies:Teaching FreedomThe Fund for American Studies (TFAS) seeks to create a brighter, more prosperous future by preparing young people for leadership by teaching them the ideas of freedom and a free-market economy. Founded in 1967, TFAS organizes programs in the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America for college and university students who are on paths toward leadership in public policy, journalism, interna-tional affairs, business, government and related fields. Our goal is to prepare these young people to serve as honorable leaders by educating them in the ideas most conducive to individual freedom, human achievement and personal responsibility.
TEACHING FREEDOM 1
s the United States a truly “exceptional” country or is it just another “flawed” nation? That question under-lies a critical and very timely debate about “American exceptionalism.” In some sense American exceptional-ism is a simple idea – that as the freest nation on earth, the United States offers the greatest opportunity for individuals to develop their talents and make the most of their lives, pursuing happiness and accomplishing the seemingly impossible with minimum government interference. America offers a degree of equality under the law that is unmatched elsewhere in the world. The American dream has become a reality for the many millions who have pursued it. The degree of freedom that Americans have enjoyed is unmatched in human history. And, there are reasons for that fact.
Today, however, the idea of American exceptionalism is being attacked in the United States and abroad. It is being questioned, challenged and even dismissed. The economic downturn has caused people to ask if their children and grandchildren will enjoy the same or better opportunities and living standards that they have enjoyed. The government has responded with increased control from Washington over our financial markets, auto industry, health care, education, communications and other sectors of the economy in ways that change, for the worse, the relationship between our people and their government. Increasingly, the nation’s public policy is moving away from the concept of personal responsibility and away from our system of free enterprise, the very foundations of the American success story. Favorable impressions of collectivism, socialism and other philosophies counter to free people and free markets are being directed at students from far too many facets of our society, including popular culture, higher education and the establish-ment news media.
Just as the founders of The Fund for American Studies responded to the challenges of turmoil and unrest in the late 1960s by establishing The Fund, today we are responding to a new set of challenges that threaten to remake America and reshape the relationship of the individual to his or her government.

2 TEACHING FREEDOM
These new challenges must be met on several fronts, but perhaps the most critically important task is to teach the rising generation the ideas that form the broader concept of American exceptionalism: indi-vidual liberty, personal responsibility, constitutionally limited government, the rule of law and a free enter-prise system.
The work we do at The Fund for American Studies is even more essential when these concepts are under attack as they are now. Investing in civic education, especially the education of young people who will be the leaders of tomorrow, is vital. This investment can prevent what economist Thomas Sowell has called the “dismantling of the values and institutions of America” – or what President Ronald Reagan called “trading our freedom for the soup kitchen of the welfare state.” Five years ago, The Fund for American Studies adopted a strategic plan that was focused on develop-ing new programs and reaching more students. Since implementing that plan, beginning in 2005, the orga-nization has experienced significant growth. Among the accomplishments are: • increasing our student enrollment by 30 percent;
• organizing two new programs on economic freedom for journalism students in Europe;
• creating a Constitution-based Legal Studies Institute for American law students;
• launching a new freedom initiative for Latin America, with programs already organized in Chile, Argentina, Peru and Guatemala;
• establishing new leadership development programs for our alumni;
• developing a mentoring program for our students;
• growing the organization’s necessary budget from $5.4 million to $7.5 million;
• acquiring a second building, which houses a classroom, meeting space and offices;
• securing a multi-year lease arrangement for our student housing on Capitol Hill.
February 6, 2010 marked the 43rd anniversary of The Fund for American Studies, which was founded as the Charles Edison Youth Fund. Coincidentally, this date was also future President Ronald Reagan’s birthday. In 1967, Charles Edison and his colleagues launched an organization dedicated to “educating America’s student leaders in the traditional principles that have fostered the nation’s constitutional govern-ment and free enterprise economy.”
Now The Fund for American Studies is poised to undertake another program expansion to ensure that the ideas that have made America great – the last, best hope on earth – are passed along to the rising generation of young people who will lead this country in the future. Our task is never completed, as every generation must be taught the ideas that allow human liberty and therefore human achievement to flourish.
In spite of the global and national economic down-turns of the past year and a half, we are determined to expand our programs to reach thousands more students with the ideas of freedom, free markets and free men and women.
We hope that as you review this annual report, you will agree that educating young people is worth the maximum investment possible in these challenging times. Many of the students we reach are learning about the Founding Fathers’ ideas of limited govern-ment for the first time. They are getting their first real exposure to the workings of a free-market economy.We are determined to reach more students this year and in the future. With your continued support we can make the difference. Sincerely,
from the chairman & president

TEACHING FREEDOM 3
The Fund for American Studies sponsors six Institutes in the nation’s capital that teach college students and law students about the principles and values upon which the United States was founded.
Each Institute offers students a comprehensive education that includes unique academic courses for credit, internships and professional development oppor-tunities. The ultimate objective is to develop talented young people who are committed to America’s founding principles and will become the journalists, policymakers and influential leaders of tomorrow.

Engalitcheff Institute on Political & Economic Systems (ICPES) 2009: 141 students • 4,232 alumniThis program offers students a thorough examination of the American political tradition and market economics through comparative study and internships in organizations involved in public policy.
Institute on Philanthropy & Voluntary Service (IPVS)2009: 81 students • 546 alumniIPVS educates students about the American traditions of philanthropy and individual responsibility in order to encourage the vibrant, private efforts that are the true American response to those in need.
Institute on Business & Government Affairs (IBGA)2009: 68 students • 926 alumniIBGA explores the practical and theoretical questions surrounding the dynamic business-government relationship. Students examine the economic and political issues that shape how business and government interact as well as the importance of representing the interests of business before Congress.
Institute on Political Journalism (IPJ)2009: 89 students • 1,718 alumniThe quality of public discourse in a free society depends on the accuracy of informa-tion provided by the news media. IPJ was established to help create a new generation of journalists who understand free-market principles and the foundations of a free society.
Capital Semester (CS)2009: 84 students • 441 alumniCapital Semester takes place each fall and spring.

A little over two decades ago, Gary Armstrong was a student
in the Institute on Comparative Political and Economic
Systems. Now he’s a professor at the Institute, teaching
U.S. Foreign Policy Process.
Armstrong’s course presents students with a historical focus
on American foreign policy. “As a rule, American political
scientists working in American foreign policy tend to teach and
argue as though the world was created in 1945. Longer and
deeper views of America’s role in the world get sandwiched,”
explained Armstrong. “I chose a historical focus for much of
the class, leading to debates among some schools of thought
about where American grand strategy should go next.”
ICPES lit a fire under Armstrong to continue his education
and work toward his Ph.D. He acknowledges that the best
aspects of the program have not differed from when he was a
student: challenging classes, great internships and impressive
lectures and site briefings. “The best part of ICPES is breaking
through walls to help students connect the world of ideas with {

the world of action,” said Armstrong. “The classes and the in-
ternships have to be engaging. It’s an impressive opportunity to
connect ideas and arguments about how we can live, and then
see another slice of the world in their ‘real world’ internships.”
Armstrong is chairman of the department of political science
at William Jewell College in Liberty, Mo. He has been voted
“Professor of the Year” four times by the student body. {educating the next generation with first principlesSince its founding, The Fund for American Studies has specialized
in offering college courses that engage students in a rigorous exami-
nation of the values of a free society. It offers 11 Institutes and 21
different accredited courses – each of which is designed to teach the
moral and intellectual case for free markets and limited constitutional
government. To teach these courses, TFAS hires faculty whose philos-
ophy is congruent with its mission. TFAS faculty are effective teachers
who prompt students to examine their own beliefs and who inspire
students to study these ideas throughout their lifetimes.
Because the Institutes are designed to influence and encourage
future leaders, TFAS markets its programs to college students across
the political spectrum. This means that conservative students, liberal
students and others who have not yet shaped their political beliefs
enroll in the programs. This approach differentiates TFAS from some
other organizations that are also working to develop young leaders.

For students enrolled in The Fund for American Studies’ U.S. programs,
learning also takes place outside of classes and internships. Students
explore powerful institutions throughout Washington, D.C. at exclusive
site briefings and meet key professionals and scholars at special events
and guest lectures.
extending educationbeyond the classroom
Site BriefingsTFAS students are afforded once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to visit places of power in the nation’s capital, where they have exclusive briefings with leaders who shape public policy. Site briefings are held at the Supreme Court, the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, the House of Representatives, the State Department and other key national institutions.
Guest Lecture SeriesEach Institute has a guest lecture series, which brings students together with leading experts in their Institute’s field of focus. Lectures and panel discussions focus on timely topics and enable students to engage these leaders in discussions about issues of the day.
Career DevelopmentInstitute students attend numerous events aimed at improving their skills and marketability. These include professional development workshops on public speaking, resume writing and interviewing as well as career panels with professionals working in fields such as journalism, lobbying and international affairs.
Special EventsEach Institute has a special dinner or reception attended by students, intern sponsors and sup-porters. In 2009 these included the Congressional Scholarship Awards dinner, which honored Sen. Jon Kyl (Ariz.); a reception to present Ambassador John Bolton with the Walter Judd Freedom Award; and the IPJ journalism awards event at the National Press Club.
Mentor ProgramMore than 200 professionals volunteer to serve as mentors to students while they attend the Institutes in Washington. Mentors meet or communicate regularly with students, offer career advice and introduce students to their professional networks.

AND JUSTICE
As the oldest of nine children, Justin
Bernier had never traveled far from his
hometown in Connecticut before he
attended the Engalitcheff Institute on
Comparative Political and Economic
Systems (ICPES) in the summer of 1996.
During his summer with TFAS he interned at the national
headquarters of Dole for President and took courses on
comparative politics and economics. “TFAS Professor George
Viksnins introduced me to economics and the importance of
the free-market system, which is now a core interest of mine,”
Bernier recalled.
This introduction to economics inspired him to pursue an
advanced degree. After graduating from Fordham University,
Bernier attended the University of Maryland for graduate
studies in international security and economic policy. {ALUMNUS PROFILE

He later worked at the National Defense University and then
as a congressional staffer.
In 2006 his boss, Rep. Rob Simmons (Conn.), lost the clos-
est congressional race in the country by just 83 votes, leaving
Bernier unemployed. Soon thereafter Navy reservist Bernier
was called to Afghanistan to serve as an intelligence officer.
Upon his return home, the governor of Connecticut appointed
him to a cabinet position as the state’s director of military
affairs. Bernier served in that position until early 2009, when
he resigned to run for Congress in Connecticut’s fifth district.
“My exposure to economics has been critical to my policy
positions as a candidate for Congress,” said Bernier, reflecting
on his TFAS experience. “It helps me connect with voters who
already know what Congress appears unwilling to accept: that
the government cannot spend its way back to prosperity.” {
gaining real-world experience for the future aheadAll students in The Fund for American Studies’ U.S. programs are
placed in professional internships, where they work for approxi-
mately 35 hours per week. Through their internships, students test
themselves in their chosen professional fields, gain work experience,
develop skills and make valuable professional contacts. For
decades, TFAS has forged relationships with leading organizations
in public policy, journalism, government relations and philanthropy,
thus ensuring students have access to the most challenging and
fulfilling internships in Washington.

LET FREEDOM RING
When the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, The Fund for American Studies began mak-ing it a priority to provide scholarships to university students from Central and Eastern Europe to attend its programs in Washington. The number of students seeking these scholarships became so large that TFAS established its first inter-national Institute in Prague in 1993. TFAS has since added four others to help bring the principles of freedom to future leaders all over the world.
American Institute on Political & Economic Systems (AIPES)Prague, Czech Republic 2009: 129 students • 1,785 alumniWith the collapse of communism, a tremen-dous need arose to reach young people from countries in the former Soviet Bloc with the ideas of a free society. AIPES offers students from Central and Eastern Europe and the United States the opportunity to study democracy and free markets.
European Journalism Institute (EJI)Prague, Czech Republic2009: 36 students • 222 alumniEJI offers young journalists throughout Europe and the United States training in the role of a free press in a free society and the importance of ethical and accurate report-ing in business journalism.
International Institute for Political & Economic Studies (IIPES)Chania, Greece2009: 88 students • 1,031 alumniThe cradle of Western civilization and birth-place of democracy provides an excellent backdrop for IIPES. This program allows young leaders of the Middle East, the Bal-kans and the United States to examine how democratic institutions and market econo-mies enhance peace and prosperity.
Asia Institute for Political Economy (AIPE)Hong Kong2009: 64 students • 510 alumniAIPE promotes the principles of economic opportunity, democracy and individual responsibility in Asia and fosters a greater understanding of the American system of government. To accomplish this, outstand-ing university students from Asia join select American students to study political and economic principles and how those ideas relate to development and trade.
Institute for Leadership in The Americas (ILA)Santiago, Chile2009: 50 students • 127 alumniILA teaches university students from the Americas about constitutional government, the rule of law, the institutions of private property and market economies. The pro-gram encourages students to develop their leadership skills and to apply these concepts to institutions in their home countries.

SEA TO SHINING SEA
For the past 14 years, Dr. Antony
Sullivan has been a key figure at The
Fund for American Studies’ Internation-
al Institute for Political and Economic
Studies (IIPES) in Greece. An expert on
relations between the West and the
Islamic world, Sullivan teaches a course
on intellectual history that explores ideas of great thinkers
such as Alexis de Tocqueville, author of Democracy in America,
and Ibn Khaldoun, a notable Arab scholar and historian.
“Many of the students from the Middle East and Balkans have
never previously been exposed to a liberal arts education,”
said Sullivan. “Moreover, few IIPES students have ever studied
the major thinkers even in their own traditions in any serious
fashion before coming to Greece.”
The teachings of these great thinkers help lay a foundation
and platform for students to develop and debate ideas. “I tell
my students that ideas, from whatever provenance, rule the
world,” said Sullivan. “Economics, government, international

relations, development and peacemaking are all determined or
significantly influenced by thinkers, academic or otherwise.”
IIPES students gain a platform of knowledge that allows them
to debate and question ideas in future settings. “When students
leave IIPES with an enhanced understanding of the impor-
tance of ideas, and of the intimate relationship between
politics, economics and liberty, I believe that The Fund has
done yeoman service in shaping future leaders capable of
fostering a better world,” said Sullivan.
More than just a professor, Sullivan is also a mentor outside
of the classroom. He is actively involved with alumni, writing
letters of recommendation, serving as a job reference and of-
fering professional advice. He explains, “IIPES is a significant
and unique example of how private initiative in education can
foster regional networks of rising stars who comprehend the
value of free, tolerant and stable societies governed by the rule
of law.” {teaching freedom across borders Each of The Fund for American Studies’ international programs bring
together the brightest students from Europe, the Middle East, Asia,
Latin America and North Africa for an intense academic and cross-
cultural experience. A small group of American students also attend
each program, giving international participants direct exposure to
the ideas and values of U.S. citizens. Leading professors from the
United States teach courses on political philosophy, economics,
intellectual history and conflict management, drawing upon the
American experience and relating it to the region where the Institute
is held. Students gain appreciation for the principles upon which
free societies are built. They also learn how to relate these ideas to
address political and economic problems in their home countries.

With international programs spanning three continents, The Fund for American
Studies has developed an extensive network of contacts with political leaders,
diplomats, economists and businesspeople who are willing to share their
expertise with students. The following are highlights of some of the guest
speakers who addressed TFAS students in the past academic year.
global leaders share their expertise with international students
Prague, Czech RepublicCzech President Václav Klaus, a champion of free-market economic reforms, gave the Polák Foundation lecture to Institute students in the historic Great Hall at Charles Univer-sity. AIPES students also met with Dr. Stefanie Babst, the assistant deputy secretary general of NATO, who delivered the annual Robin Beard Lecture about the transatlantic alliance in the 21st century.
Chania, GreeceSerbian Ambassador and Presidential Advisor Dusan Batakovic talked with students about political and economic issues facing the future of the Mediterranean region. Secretary Gen-eral of Information Panos Leivadas discussed the role of Greece in international affairs.
Hong KongAs part of a weekly guest lecture series covering politics, economic and international affairs, former U.S. Ambassador to Singapore Frank Lavin addressed students on the topic of U.S.-Asia relations. Students also attended a career panel featuring representatives of Crown Worldwide, HSBC Bank and the Skadden Arps law firm.
Santiago, ChileStudents attended a private briefing at the National Congress of Chile, where three mem-bers of the Chamber of Deputies spoke and took questions. Students toured the building and observed Congress in session. At a think tank in Santiago, Dr. José Piñera, the architect of Chile’s private pension system, gave a guest lecture explaining how free-market reforms have led to booming economic growth in Chile.

“The event was superb on all levels, from meeting amazing people to sightseeing at places that remind us of President Reagan’s exceptionalism.”
The Fund for American Studies brings together people who share the belief that
teaching young leaders about free markets and limited government is the key
to sustaining a free society. Supporters and friends of The Fund gather twice a
year – at a spring conference in Washington, D.C. and at a fall Leadership
Network event held at rotating locations across the country.
LEADERSHIP NETWORKThe Leadership Network was held October 9 and 10,
2009 in Santa Barbara, California. The event celebrated
the life and achievements of President Ronald Reagan.
Attendees visited the Reagan Ranch Center, followed by a
trip to the Santa Ynez Mountains to tour Reagan’s Rancho
del Cielo. The delegation also visited the Ronald Reagan
Presidential Foundation and Library, where they toured
the Reagans’ private quarters, decorated with personal
items donated by Nancy Reagan. At the library, guests laid
a memorial wreath at President Reagan’s burial site and
had dinner in the Air Force One Pavilion directly beneath
the plane Reagan used during his presidency.

ing. As a result, alumni remain loyal and devoted to the organization
years after attending an Institute. Many alumni give back to the organi-
zation by making financial contributions to the Alumni Scholarship Fund,
which provides scholarships to deserving students. In 2009, alumni
made donations to support the purchase and renovation of the new
Center for Teaching Freedom. Contributors of $350 received recogni-
tion by having their names inscribed on bricks or pavers on a patio at
the building’s entrance.
