Join us in Portland to discuss the hottest topics in political science education (and eat donuts, shop at Powell's, and enjoy the weirdness of Portland).

Talking to grad students at APSA’s annual meeting always reminds me that future of the discipline is bright. But it’s hard out there. Consider donating to the Graduate Student Member Support Grant. Scroll down on this page & select the grant to donate. (1/2)

Bit is out here doing the lord's work. I'll add (1a) if you can't get your badge on Wednesday, go pick it up *during* a panel slot not immediately before one (if you can help it). The line for badge printing right before the morning panels on Thursday, especially, are quite wild. Try to avoid that.

Some of my fave events I get to plan are these teaching & learning symposia! Small groups, workshopping teaching resources. This summer: Civic Education & America's 250th (in-person in DC just before the actual 250th), Sports & Politics (virtual), Teaching in the Age of AI (virtual). Take a look!

Not up for a multi-day workshop (see previous post), but still curious to hear how others are approaching teaching American Politics during these times. Check out this superstar webinar on June 5.

Do you teach Intro to American Politics? Want to work on how to teach it during *gestures broadly at everything*? Consider applying to this virtual small group workshop. Resulting resources will be shared on APSA Educate for wider use.

This resource page highlights scholarship on authoritarianism, democratic back-sliding, democracy, and the US democratic crisis, as well as resources on academic freedom, advocacy, and teaching resources. There's a form for sharing additional resources as we intend for this to be a dynamic document

Are you a political science graduate student studying one of these 6 topics and you have a dissertation chapter ready for feedback? Please consider applying for one of these dissertation workshops - a great chance to work closely with 2 co-facilitators and a very small group of(6-8) of your peers.
