Now an award-winning Stanford University faculty member, she discussed her love for education and teaching during her keynote address. As part of the series, she also sat down for a Q&A with students.

Rice, Secretary of State under former President George W. Bush, is regarded as one of today's foremost leading experts on foreign policy and terrorism. She made history as the second woman and the first African American woman to hold the post. She also was the first woman to serve as national security advisor to a U.S. president. She held various other foreign policy posts under Bush and his father, former President George H.W. Bush.
