Schreiner University Presents The 2023 Weir and Nell Labatt Distinguished Lecture Series featuring Colonel James Jones
Enter With Hope: Health Professions and Public Service
Kerrville, TX – Schreiner University presents the Weir and Nell Labatt Distinguished Lecture Series, featuring Colonel James Jones on Apr 13, at 7 p.m. in the Cailloux Campus Activity Center (CCAC) ballrooms. This highly anticipated lecture is free and open to the public.
COL Jones is a licensed physician assistant, researcher, instructor and executive manager with an exemplary record of successful medical program development, tactical execution and clinical care across 33 years of military service. He has had the opportunity to provide health care and input on policy at the highest levels of the U.S. government and has specialized in preparing for and responding to emergencies, disasters and other challenging conditions around the world.
COL Jones was appointed by President Obama as the PA to the President and continued in that role until October 2018. He served as the first PA Deputy Director and Chief of Protective Medicine White House
Medical Unit to serve the President and Vice President of the United States. In March 2020, he was appointed as the Chief Medical Advisor, Executive Office of the President and served on the COVID Task Force.
In addition to caring for the president, vice president, their families, and other senior U.S. Government officials, Colonel Jones traveled to more than 94 countries planning medical contingency operations for both official presidential and vice-presidential visits.
The Weir and Nell Labatt Distinguished Lecture Series was established by a generous gift from the late Nell Schreiner Labatt to bring motivational speakers to the Schreiner campus. For more information on this event, contact Shannon Deville, Director of Schreiner Institute at Schreiner University, at sdeville@schreiner.edu.
The Harry Crate Lecture Series is named in memory of Harry Crate, a former Schreiner University Math and Engineering Professor, who was known for his love of discussing science and technology with students and faculty.
