More than 350 guests attended the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center 71st Anniversary Ball on Nov. 3, held at the Naval Postgraduate School’s historic Herrmann Hall Ballroom.
“We were pleased that so many of DLIFLC’s faculty and staff attended the event. This is a unique opportunity for instructors to attend a ball, interact with the Institute’s leadership, and have fun,” said Ben De La Selva, president of the DLI Alumni Association, and sponsor of the ball. The guest speaker at the event, Dr. Michael G. Vickers, currently under secretary of defense for intelligence, graduated twice from DLIFLC, the Czech course in 1977 and the Spanish course in 1979.
