    Purpose of the Meeting: The Western Hemisphere Institute for

advice and recommendations on matters pertaining to the curriculum, 
instruction, physical equipment, fiscal affairs, and academic methods 
of the institute; other matters relating to the institute that the 
board decides to consider; and other items that the Secretary of 
Defense determines appropriate. The board reviews curriculum to 
determine whether it adheres to current U.S. doctrine, complies with 
applicable U.S. laws and regulations, and is consistent with U.S. 
policy goals toward Latin America and the Caribbean. The board also 
determines whether the instruction under the curriculum of the 
institute appropriately emphasizes human rights, the rule of law, due 
process, civilian control of the military, and the role of the military 
in a democratic society. The Secretary of Defense may act on the 
committee's advice and recommendations.

briefings from the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Policy);
