From 911Encyclopedia:

The Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace within Stanford University is a public policy research center devoted to advanced study of politics, economics, and political economy--both domestic and foreign--as well as international affairs. Founded in 1919 by Herbert Hoover, who later became the thirty-first president of the United States, the Institution originated as a specialized collection of documents on the causes and consequences of World War I. Some of the many "Hoover fellows" are William Perry (->) (former United States secretary of defense, serving from February 1994 to January 1997), William Ratliff , Condoleeza Rice, George P. Shultz (former secretary of state until January 1989 and currently member of the board of directors of Bechtel Group), Edward Teller (chairman of the first Nuclear Reaction Safeguard Committee and supporter of the first nuclear Bomb), Robert Zoelnick (->) , Newt Gingrich, Ronald Reagan (See Reagan-Files), Alexander Solzhenitsyn or Margaret Thatcher. In 2001 Foreign Policy Expert Kiron Skinner was named to U.S. Defense Policy Board fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. She is a fellow of the Council on Foreign Relations. Skinner earned her doctor's degree at Harvard University in 1994. http://www-hoover.stanford.edu/
