Most of the speakers were either well-known journalists such as Anderson Cooper, Dan Rather, and Bob Woodward), or government figures, including Robert Gates, Rudolph Giuliani, and Shimon Peres. Three former U.S. Presidents have also been among the lecturers in the series. The lecture series was named in honor of Robert C. Vance, publisher of the from 1951 to 1959. The original aim of the series was to bring to CCSU speakers from the field of journalism. Newscaster David Brinkley was scheduled to give the first Vance lecture in 1983, but was replaced only days before the lecture by Benjamin Bradlee., The twelve lecturers following Bradlee were well-known political figures, but since 2001, journalists have also been featured. All costs for the series were covered by the Robert C. Vance Charitable Foundation, a private foundation founded in 1958. Lectures were free to the public, although in later years a paid reception and dinner with the lecturer was usually held before the lecture. (en)
