Political Science Professional Development Day

On Tuesday, October 15th, UConn Early College Experience and UConn's Political Science Department invited Prof. Sanford  Levinson (Law Professor from University of Texas) and his wife, children's book author Cynthia Levinson to Storrs to speak with UConn ECE Political Science instructors and UConn Political Science students. Prof. Levinson is a notable legal scholar, most known for books and publications about constitutional law.

Prof. Levinson spoke at length during the morning session about "Why the Impeachment Clause Is a Failure” and was most was recently quoted in a article posted to Vox: "Are we in a constitutional crisis yet? ".  The Levinson's blog "Fault Lines in the Constitution" is a valuable teaching resource for political science instructors.

After lunch the group of instructors met to discuss their UConn courses and exchanged ideas and best practices. Many thanks to the Political Science Department (Department Head, Prof. David Yalof and Prof. Matt Singer),  ECE Faculty Coordinator, Fred Turner and ECE instructor Aaron Hull -Greenwich High School) for their hard work in planning this exceptional professional development day.
