I am happy to be able to share that we have launched a “Peace Corps Prep” program here at Monmouth College. The program is led by Professor Craig Vivian and I serve as one of the coordinators.

We will have an official launch event soon this fall.

Our classes officially begin tomorrow! And here are some updates:

1. We have a new department website:  http://dept.monmouthcollege.edu/political-science/.
2. I am teaching three courses, including one that is completely new to me:
   • Global Justice (POLS 150) [syllabus] *NEW*
   • Introduction to International Relations (POLS 270) [syllabus]
   • Senior Seminar (POLS 415) [syllabus]
3. I am actively updating my other website, Political Science Guide. Last year I had to do a basic transfer of the website off of Wesleyan’s servers but I really didn’t change much substantively. This time, I am making substantive changes to improve the usefulness of the site. I will be updating it as I work with our seniors during our Senior Seminar this term. If you have feedback of any kind, let me know!
