Thought you would like to take a look at Bill's syllabus for his "tactical counterterrorism" class. He claimed to be 1 of 4 guys to conduct a "pre-mission recon for Desert One". Said he was disguised as a German businessman...I think he just read that from The Atlantic article written on it. His details were also found in CSM Eric Haney's book. He recommended it to the students and added "Eric is a good friend of mine." Anyways, here is the syllabus. Enjoy.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this workshop is to make students aware of how policy gets interpreted and carried out in terms of counterterrorism ideologies and operations. We will discuss the immediate and long-term effects of U.S. and other counterterrorism actions throughout the world. We will try to define counterterrorism by examining its multiple layers from pre-diplomatic assessment, government intervention through the use of military and armed conflict, to post action evaluation.

May 10, 2010, Students Share First Place in MIIS Anti-Human Trafficking Essay Contest
Monterey Institute students Shauna Kelly (MAIPS ’10) and Melissa Booth (MAIPS ’10) are co-winners of the 2010 Reverend Sloane Coffin Anti-Human Trafficking Essay Contest and will each receive a $750 prize contributed by Dr. Peter Grothe.
Shauna Kelly’s essay is titled “The Empowerment of Women is a Prerequisite for Mitigating Human Trafficking” and draws on her experience in Sierra Leone last January for Professor Puspha Iyer's J-term course Challenges to Peacebuilding. Ms. Kelly has focused on the fight against human trafficking in her studies at the Monterey Institute, where she has written a number of reports on different aspects of this growing global problem.
Melissa Booth’s essay is titled "Out of the Darkness and Into the Light: Initiation into and Exploration of the Human Trafficking Movement." She says she realized she wanted to be part of the anti-trafficking movement when she was participating in Professor Iyer’s class in Cambodia.

The Substance Abuse Prevention Program (SAPP) is designed to provide education and to increase awareness in the areas of alcohol and other drug prevention, intervention, treatment, and recovery.
The University of Oregon SAPP Area of Concentration Certificate can be earned upon completion of 24 credits in the substance abuse curriculum offered by SAPP. Earning the Area of Concentration shows future employers that you have taken a concentrated core of substance abuse curriculum.
A collaborative effort between the Substance Abuse Prevention Program, the College of Education and the department of Continuing Education, (Summer Session link below), provides students and professionals with opportunities to meet their academic and career goals. Fields of study or licensure programs are developed to afford a unique learning environment for professional growth and development.
Individuals interested in working with substance abuse and related issues will discover a "cutting edge" philosophy focusing on evidence-based practice.
SAPP's newest educational track is for the Certified Prevention Specialist (CPS). A professional with this certification is recognized as having the best education in leading strategies and programs to reduce alcohol, tobacco and other drug use thereby encouraging a healthier individual and community. To successfully apply a prevention program takes the combined efforts of a Certified Prevention Specialist coordinating with families, schools, and diverse community programs.

The mail fraud charges stem from his alleged use of false work experience and academic credentials to get hired at Monterey Institute of International Studies. The institute paid Hillar by mailing checks totaling $32,300 to Hillar's home address in Millersville, Md. He allegedly pocketed more than $100,000 in the course of the scheme from a variety of public and private institutions, including law enforcement agencies.

Jeffrey M. Bale
Associate Professor and Director of the Monterey Terrorism Research and Education Program (MonTREP)
Dr. Jeffrey M. Bale is the Director of the Monterey Terrorism Research and Education Program (MonTREP) and an Associate Professor in the Graduate School of International Policy and Management at the Monterey Institute of International Studies (MIIS), and also regularly teaches specialized courses on an adjunct basis at the Naval Postgraduate School. He obtained his B.A. in Middle Eastern and Islamic history at the University of Michigan, his M.A. in social movements and political sociology at the University of California at Berkeley, and his Ph.D. in contemporary European history at Berkeley. He previously taught at Berkeley, Columbia University, and the University of California at Irvine, and was the recipient of postdoctoral fellowships from the Society of Fellows in the Humanities at Columbia, the Office of Scholarly Programs at the Library of Congress, and the Center for German and European Studies at Berkeley.
Dr. Bale has been studying violence-prone political and religious extremists for nearly three decades – long before it suddenly became “fashionable” in the wake of the tragic 11 September 2001 attacks on the United States – and has published numerous scholarly articles on terrorism, CBRN use by terrorists and states, right-wing extremism, Islamism, and covert political operations. He has just finished co-editing (with Bassam Tibi) a special issue of the journal Totalitarian Movements and Political Religions on Islamism, is in the final process of updating a two-part manuscript on underground neo-fascist networks in Cold War Europe and the terrorist “strategy of tension” in Italy, and is preparing three new scholarly monographs: one on the diverse array of Islamist networks currently operating in western Europe (The “Enemy Within”), another on the burgeoning “conspiracy theory” literature related to 9/11 and other major recent terrorist attacks (Imagined Terrorist Plots), and still another on the growing links between dissident left- and right-wing radicals in the West and Islamist groups (Where the Extremes Touch). He reads numerous foreign languages, has carried out specialized archival research (in the United States as well as in several European countries), has personally interviewed extremists from several political and religious milieus, and has accumulated an extensive collection of primary source materials related to both extremist and terrorist groups and covert politics). His responsibilities at MonTREP include preparing research reports on various aspects of terrorist ideologies, motivations, and operational techniques.
Dr. Bale has recently published several book chapters and articles in Patterns of Prejudice, Terrorism and Political Violence, and Democracy and Security, as well as a number of in-depth research reports for components of the U.S. government. He is currently a special consultant to the Editorial Advisory Board of the journal Totalitarian Movements and Political Religions (Taylor and Francis), and often serves as a consultant for government agencies and private organizations on matters related to terrorism and ideological extremism.
