"Barroso sheds light on the future of Europe
Dan Simpson

EUROPEAN Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso came to Pittsburgh Friday as a guest of University of Pittsburgh Chancellor Mark Nordenberg. Mr. Nordenberg is also honorary consul of the United Kingdom, one of the member countries of the European Union.

To the degree that anyone is the president of Europe, Mr. Barroso, 49, as head of the EC, is. The specific purpose of his surprising visit was to recognize the EU Center of Excellence of the University of Pittsburgh's Center for International Studies, one of 10 such centers the EU has established in the United States."
