School of Public Policy Professor Marilyn Brown's confirmation hearing for the Tennessee Valley Authority Board of Directors occurred February 9, in the midst of the snow event that shut down the Federal government.
President Obama announced his intent to nomiate Brown for a position on the TVA board. (Read more in the December Ivan Allen College Newsletter - link below).
Brown's statement begins about two thirds of the way through the video which also includes statements and discussion of climate change and air quality issues by U.S. Senators Boxer, Alexander, Barrasso, and Whitehouse and by Brown's co-nominees Bill Sansom--a businessman, Neil McBride--public rights lawyer, and Barbara Haskew--an economist and past-Provost of Middle Tennessee State University.
