description Dr. George Tomeh, Syrian Ambassador to the United Nations speaks on the refugee crisis that has arisen from the 1967 Arab-Israeli conflict. Tomeh argues that the Arab point of view has been neglected by western media and that this has impacted the ability of the United Nations to negotiate peace and ensure the rights of Arab refugees.� The talk, followed by a Q&A period,�was part of the 1968 Auburn Conference on International Affairs (ACOIA) 1968. The theme of ACOIA 1968 was 'The international year of human rights.'�ACOIA was a�regional conference, originally sponsored by the Auburn University Student�Senate, on international affairs and social issues. Each conference focused�on a specific theme and typically featured 5-10 speakers over a two- to�three-day period. Circa 1970, the conference's format was changed to a series�of speeches over a two- to three-month period; around the same time, the�conference's purview was expanded to include domestic issues. In that�connection, the conference's name was changed from 'Auburn Conference on�International Affairs' to 'Horizons' in 1971. The Horizons�lectures were organized by students on the Horizons Committee of the�University Program Council (UPC) in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.
