that's where we want columbia to head. that's what we want columbia to embrace, to be able to grow and close the social gaps. so the first thing we did figure ago, we wanted columbia to differentiate from the rest of the country in the region and adopt a competitive pro-business taxation policy. so instead of looking at what happened in the past we have tax reforms for the state wanted to spend more, with high levels of taxation's the affected competitivenessde, they shoot ay the investment, we made the most important reforms in terms of lowering corporate taxes toxe small and large corporations. just in one year, we have seen foreign direct investment in columbia past 24%. we've seen also latin america and korea expected to grow 0.5% this year, columbia expected to grow above 3%. why? we had given the right signals. we introduced important reforms like telcom and information technology where we pass a bill so by 2022, 70% of the columbia population will have fast speed internet and moved to throughout the country. that's

carol: we turn from columbia to yale.t is about a legend at the university and its highest-paid employee. he is the money manager who, for 34 years, has been in charge of the yale endowment. >> he has been the chief investment officer at yale since 1985, which is a long time. and if you think about 1985, yale was mostly invested in stocks and bonds. to be diversified was to be diversified in stocks and bonds and he changed the world. you think of private equity, hedge funds, how institutional investors invest, that was, in some ways, because of him. you think about private equity money will be tied up for years, in some cases decades. and if you are investing for centuries, which is what yale endowments are doing, you can't afford to have that money locked up and there is a liquidity premium. we know this today, but back then, that was not how things were done. carol: you think about the junk bond market, is part of normal investing today but when it was created it was considered innovative. that is where he was coming fr

so he called a columbia graduate, judge edmund palmieri, who was a columbia undergraduate, columbia law school graduate and always took his clerks from columbia. and he said i strongly recommend that you engage ruth bader ginsburg. and palmieri's response was i've had women law clerks, i know they're okay, but she's a mother, and sometimes we have to work on weekends, even on a sunday. so professor gunther said give her a chance, and if she doesn't work out, a young man in her class who's going to a downtown firm will jump in and take over. so that was the carrot. it was also a stick, and the stick was if you don't give her a chance, i will never recommend another columbia graduate as your law clerk. [laughter] [applause] and that's the way it was in not-so-ancient days for women. the big hurdle was to get that first job. once a woman got the job, she did it at least as well as the men. so the second job was not the same obstacle. there's a wonderful book -- this is a meeting about books, so let me mention it -- it's called "with firsts." and it's about, it's a biography of sandra day t

we are joined from columbia's business school with a high-profile -- from columbia business school withprofile alumnus. -- lulu wanggo graduated in 1983, and has seen a lot of up-and-down cycles. >> we are kicking off this big day here at columbia with lulu. we want to start by talking with you about coming to columbia in 1983. what drew you here? >> i came to columbia because i had already been working wall street for a number of years. , had developed a good practice but i knew that in the future was a firm of my own, and i really one to have the best credentials. to undergraduate with strong credentials, but i needed to have the credentials of a good university like columbia, so i came really for that reason, but found far more than that. >> talk about that specifically. you were working and doing the executive program for a long time. tell us what you got from being here. >> i found by coming to columbia, everything i had been doing and observing as an investor on wall street, it all began to come together in the context of theory and practice. i believe when you take practice from

the analysis is nothing at columbia.he main issue doesn't mean anything to anybody. >> is a really interested in columbia? are you concerned with something much bigger than columbia? >> say that neither is true. what it is is a training ground or one that has immediate relevance. >> according to the leader, it was a training exercise, and the goal that was a takeover of the united states. according to a report, at the height of the student rebellion , a leader was approached who objected the reported plans against the police. they were told very clearly that you liberals don't understand what the scene is all about. it is about power and disruption. this was the president of columbia of university. you call for order and respect for authority. we call for socialism. they paralyze the university. they found one of the leaders of the coordinating committees that agitated all over america. >> the students of columbia university or through the black community and were there for 56 hours. they will stay here until the univers

and argued that the entire district of columbia is a sensitive place . again to a school or government building. the whole district is an area to which the second amendment does not apply and one of the judges at the argued that position before agreed and said if it appears to be the district of columbia is essentially one big government building . and so the second amendment doesn't really apply here. this is particularly remarkable given that if you go back to heller, the jurisdiction in heller was the district of columbia and the district of columbia argued in heller it was not bound by the second amendment and the supreme court disagreed, the district has continued to argue that it remains not bound by the second amendment and there are judges that have agreed with that position and have embraced that position broadly in other jurisdictions as well essentially concluding that entire cities can be deemed sensitive places. we litigated a case a few years ago in california that involved special restrictions fees that california puts on the ability to en

not necessarily walkable from the columbia country club.s at least a two story house, it had a narrow set of stairs from the ground level where the party was going on to this upper level where there was a bedroom and bathroom across the hall. there were a number of things like that. one interesting thing was she had a recollection that mark judge, kavanaugh's friend, seemed to have a possessive kind of approach to the house. not that it was his house, that's more or less been ruled out in my reporting but that it was maybe a friend of his house or a family member or something like that. i kind of went to the mark judge universe of that time as best i could. >> that he was kind of worried about taking care of the house that someone might come home to the house. >> right. there was a sense they had to be out by a certain time. there seem to be a fear of if we break something or spill something it's on me. >> he was going to the house. >> right. to make a long story short, i certainly could be wrong but i sort of narrowed it down to two possib

we are also working with columbia. the leader of columbia is a friend of mine and he is doing a really good job. i tell you that. we are working with columbia. we are working with brazil. we are working with other countries on a humanitarian basis. finitude venezuela is a very sad shape. that shows you about socialism. and it shows you what happens. think a country that was so wealthy 15 years ago and say, they don't have water. they don't have basic food. so, we will see what happens. no, i disagree with john bolton on his attitude toward venezuela. thought he was way out of line. and i think i was proven to be right. but, we are always watching venezuela very, very closely. >> i don't want to talk about that. >> -- or that companies that were making these products will be treated unfairly by taking these products off the market? >> they have become very rich companies very fast. and the whole thing with vaping is, it was very profitable. and i fight for companies very hard. that's why i'm fighting with china. that's

it says nothing about the district of columbia. or other u.s. territories, like puerto rico. so puerto rican women, although they were engaged in the suffrage movement since the early 20th century were not included by the 19th amendment and their territorial legislature refused to extend them the right to vote when the 19th amendment was ratified. so they've faced another 15-year struggle to secure voting rights for puerto rican women. i should mention that puerto rican women were already united states citizens at this point in time too. they gained citizenship in 1917. we have a letter from anna valez who is writing to president coolidge in 1929 urging his support for a measure that was before congress to give women the right to vote, in particular she's asking that he'll sign the bill if it passes. they achieve a partial victory, not all women get the right to vote in puerto rico in 1929. literate women are able to secure their voting rights but it's not until 1935 that all american -- excuse me, all puerto rican women gain the right to vote in puerto rico. but for both pue
