Professor Loughlin Takes Student Presenters to Conference


Four students accompanied Dr. Loughlin to Walsh University last weekend for the "All Politics is Local Conference, where they presented their research.

The All Politics is Local Conference was established in 2004 as a conference tailored to undergraduate students interested in political science and international relations. It offers students an opportunity to present one of their papers in the domestic, international or philosophical areas of the discipline. It also has informational sessions on "What to Expect in Graduate School" and "What to Expect in Law School." These sessions are hosted by students who are currently in graduate or law school.

The students, which included Megan Piersol, Matt Wiseman, Soo Kyung Oh, and Jamie Culp presented their papers and acquitted themselves well, according to Loughlin. The students were encouraged to present their papers by Dr. Loughlin and Dr. Nsia-Pepra, who assigned those papers in their classes.
