Upper School News


Shorecrest Upper School students in the Global Scholars Initiative (GSI) program have the opportunity to attend a monthly dinner and guest speaker presentation hosted by the Tampa Bay Area Committee on Foreign Relations (TBACFR). On April 20, Sophia Smith '24, Lily Bojkovic '25 and GSI Chair Kayla Brazee attended a presentation entitled "My Employees are Held Hostage: Next Steps When the KGB Seizes Your Property" by Mark V. Vlasic.

Mr. Vlasic is a current law professor at Georgetown University, served as a special assistant to the Secretary of Defense under President Obama, and has received countless international accolades. Within his presentation, he shared his experiences in international hostage negotiations, most recently in Belarus.

In addition to hearing from Mr. Vlasic, the students were able to speak with professors, graduate students and other members of the foreign relations community.
