On November 19th, Supporting Women in Political Science (SWIPS) hosted its final meeting of the Fall 2024 Semester. 19 members attended the meeting, which was opened by officers highlighting upcoming events before transitioning into the night’s topic: “What Comes Next.”
The presentation consisted of a recap of the 2024 election results, a deep dive into voter demographics, and an analysis of the transition of power and the upcoming Trump administration. Throughout the presentation, SWIPS officers took turns educating members about topics they found most interesting from the election. Officers also engaged attending members with trivia questions about the election process, the presidential cabinet, and the electoral college. Officers finished the presentation with an open discussion about any questions members had about the election or interesting trends they saw in Texas.
SWIPS is a nonpartisan women’s organization at Texas State University dedicated to helping political science majors and other students explore the various aspects of political science, enabling them to pursue their professional and academic interests. SWIPS meets every other Tuesday at 6:30PM in THH 428.
