Luxembourg Ambassador Visits TCU

Ms Arlette Conzemius-Paccoud, ambassador of Luxembourg to the United States, was on the Texas Christian University campus 23-24 March 1999. During her busy two days she spoke to a graduate business class, visited the Pate-Newcomer Luxembourg Collection, and presented additions to the collection to Chancellor Ferrari.

In the evening, the ambassador spoke to the Friends of the TCU Library in the Dee J. Kelly Alumni Center. She also assisted Mr Robert Seal, University Librarian, in presenting a plaque to Vice-Chancellor Emeritus Dr James Newcomer as a token of the library's appreciation for his work in building the collection.

She also serves as her country's ambassador to Canada and Mexico. Since joining the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Luxembourg in 1981 she has represented her country at the United Nations, the Council of Europe, the European Community, and the United States.
