Political Science Majors Chosen to Present Papers in Washington, D.C.

For her paper, “País Petit: an Analysis of Catalan Nationalist Ideology from the Renaixença to Current Events,” Jacqueline Manuel has been accepted to be part of the 2016 Pi Sigma Alpha National Student Conference.

Alec Lafavore’s, “Architects of Language: How Narrative Framing Shapes Politics,” has also been chosen to be a part of the conference.

Designed to “acquaint undergraduates with the process and academic rigors of presenting research in a scholarly manner,” this annual conference is sponsored by Pi Sigma Alpha, the national political science honor society and provides the opportunity for members to present their research findings in the heart of Washington, DC.

The event begins Friday, February 12th with a reception and a bus tour of the city, with stops at the Capitol, Lincoln, and Jefferson memorials. Students will present their work on the following day at George Washington University.

Congratulations, Alec and Jacqueline, for this exciting opportunity!
