Peace Center

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.--A $1.1 million center for the study of world peace, named for Harold E. Stassen, will be established at the University of Minnesota's Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs.

Stassen, who earned his bachelor's and law degrees from the university, is known for his frequent campaigns to become President. He was dubbed Minnesota's "boy governor" when he was elected in 1938 at age 31 for the first of three two-year terms.
