On Friday, January 19th, the Department of Political Science held an Open House for incoming freshmen and transfer students. The event allowed attendees to learn about the department and to make connections with faculty, staff, and fellow students as they begin classes. Around 35 students attended the event, and they were able to get information on degrees offered by Political Science, get advice for degree planning, and spin the wheel for department swag such as t-shirts, lanyards, hats, and water bottles.
David Rodriguez, a political science graduate student who assisted at the event, said that he “met a lot of fascinating new students who are very passionate about their studies, including some who were thinking about switching their major to political science.”
