Elections and Executives
Sponsored by the WTAMU Honors Program
The Elections and Executives series speakers will put the American electoral process and American Presidency into context through a variety of topics. It is especially crucial in this election year to appreciate our own system as it compares to historical and international models. By doing so, we become better citizens of our own country, and of the world.
All events are in the Cornette Library's Lecture Room and are free and open to the public.
