In a fitting tribute to the exceptional contributions of its lecturers, Carleton University’s Lifelong Learning Program (LLeaP) is thrilled to announce Dr. Tepper as the winner of the inaugural Lecturer of the Year award. This accolade honors Dr. Tepper’s impactful lecture series, “Behind the Headlines: Current News and World Events.” A thought-provoking guide to the shifting global landscape, the series captivated audiences with its depth, clarity, and timeliness, establishing Dr. Tepper as a leading voice in lifelong learning at Carleton.

The Behind the Headlines series explored complex international issues, helping participants make sense of the stories that dominate the news and shape global relations. Dr. Tepper’s skill in analyzing current events was matched by his unique ability to foster a meaningful dialogue that engaged and inspired the community. His lectures not only shed light on pressing topics but also encouraged participants to think critically about the forces that influence international affairs and policy.

Dr. Tepper, a Senior Fellow with the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs (NPSIA), is celebrated for his profound insights and dedication to public education on world events. His expertise in international relations, honed over a distinguished career, has made him a sought-after commentator and a cherished member of the Carleton community. Through his work with LLeaP, he exemplifies the university’s mission of making knowledge accessible and relevant to lifelong learners.

This new Lecturer of the Year award reflects the Lifelong Learning Program’s commitment to excellence, recognizing lecturers who inspire, challenge, and engage with participants who value learning.
