<Title>POLI 324: The Congress</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Hey Political Science Majors,<div><br></div><div>I hope the transition to online courses is going smoothly for all of you. Due to the fact that it is advising season, many of you will be having virtual advising meetings in the coming weeks if you have not had one already. If you are still in need of Upper Level Political Science Courses to complete your major, I would recommend looking into POLI 324: The Congress. The course explores the tension between the representative Congress as the
    collection of individual members with idiosyncratic, local, divergent needs and
    the lawmaking Congress as a collective body with shared, national, convergent
    responsibilities. Please see the attached link for more information about the course. As always, if you have questions regarding any of our Political Science courses, please feel free to reach out to your faculty adviser or myself at <a href="mailto:polisciadvising@umbc.edu">polisciadvising@umbc.edu</a>.</div><p></p></div>

<Title>2020 Korenman Lecture</Title>
<Tagline>Dr. Kelly Dittmar</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><p>In honor of the 100th anniversary of women's suffrage,
    Gender, Women's, + Sexuality Studies invited Dr. Kelly Dittmar, Assistant
    Research Professor at the Center for American Women and Politics, to deliver
    the 2020 Korenman Lecture. Dr. Dittmar's work on the way that gender affects
    political campaigns will be a timely addition to the variety of programming
    UMBC is planning around voting and American political life in 2020, and she
    will provide valuable context for the primary elections that will be running
    throughout the Spring term. Her talk will be titled "Measuring Electoral
    Success: Gender and Intersectional Dynamics in Political Campaigns". A
    summary from Dr. Dittmar is below --<br>
    <br>
    </p>
    
    <p><br>
    The electoral gains for women in the 2018 election were notable, but that
    numeric progress was not felt by all women nor did it yield gender parity in
    American politics. Beyond the numbers, measuring success in U.S. elections
    means considering the ways in which gender and intersectional dynamics that
    have created obstacles to women candidates are disrupted.</p>
    
    <p><br>
    Dr. Dittmar will be on campus <strong>March 10th to deliver a public lecture at
    4:00 pm in the Library Gallery</strong>.</p>
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p><strong>Also, please let Carolyn Forestiere (<a href="mailto:forestie@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">forestie@umbc.edu</a>) know if
    you would be interested in meeting Dr. Dittmar in a small group setting around
    the time of the event.</strong></p></div>
