Over the month of March, UBC POLI will be hosting lunches in which small groups of students will be invited to join faculty members in discussion on a topic of shared interest. Each lunch will be an informal opportunity for students and faculty to share opinions, questions, and ideas. This isn’t a formal seminar. It’s a casual conversation (with a free lunch) in which students and faculty can get to know, and learn from, one another.
Professors Paul Quirk & Matt Wright on US Politics – Tuesday 7 March
Topics might include: Why are American politics so polarized? What are the prospects for the 2024 presidential election? Florida’s book bans? Why is there so little action on gun control despite broad public desire? Canada – US ties and anything else you want to talk about.
