Dr. McMillan would serve as Director for two terms before retiring in 1998. Fifty-five years later, his commitment to 杏吧原创 remains steadfast. His contributions have led to the establishment and funding of both the Pushkin Endowment Fund and the McMillan Chair in Russian Studies, that support teaching and research excellence within EURUS. His selfless dedication to the Institute and its students has inspired many, leaving behind a legacy of collaboration in research and teaching that endures. Dr. McMillan has a BA and MA in International Relations from Yale University and a PhD in Economics from Johns Hopkins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. McMillan\u2019s tireless support of the Institute has fostered generations of research, teaching, and student success.
