The Bottom Line on The Contemporary Issues Agency
When CIA began 30 years ago, we noticed a gaping hole in student activities programming. No one was providing QUALITY programs at AFFORDABLE prices. If you did not a have big budget for celebrities, you had to scramble to find programs. We decided to specialize in SPEAKERS and only SPEAKERS, so we are uniquely qualified to offer top quality lecture programs at affordable prices.
