MURFREESBORO — A
fresh look at the Middle East is in store on the next edition of the “MTSU On
the Record” radio program.
Host Gina Logue’s interview with Dr. Sean Foley will air
from 5:30 to 6 p.m. Monday, June 23, and from 8 to 8:30 a.m. Sunday, June 29,
on WMOT-FM (89.5 and www.wmot.org).
Foley, an associate professor of history, will offer his views
on the arrest of a suspect in the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on the American
embassy in Benghazi, Libya, and the escalation of violence in Iraq by the
Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
In addition, he will discuss his past year’s work in Saudi
Arabia, conducting research all over the kingdom to assess its politics and
cultures with the help of MTSU’s Saudi alumni.
“There are many Saudi students who come to campus,” said
Foley. “It’s been a tremendously rewarding exchange, not only for them, but for
us.”
