Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Tom Ridge talked to a Harvard Business School audience of students and faculty Wednesday (Feb. 11) about the challenges he has faced as the first head of a new federal agency. The Department of Homeland Security was put together from 22 federal departments in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. Ridge, former governor of Pennsylvania, was a 1967 Harvard College honors graduate.
