Weinberg’s globe spanning life and late career shifts
KU higher education reporter outlines Weinberg’s experiences from a chancellor's request to mentor to volunteering with Mother Teresa in Calcutta in 1976 and a private morning with Indira Gandhi. He climbed Mount Hurricane, won a Taj Mahal photo contest, and aided the university’s reorganization. He toured world cities, taught students, wrote a historical fiction novel, and entered phased retirement to join the EU Honors Program.

Iraqi leaders are split over immunity for trainers, with Prime Minister Maliki lacking votes to grant it.
