Do you have policy issues & topics that you want to discuss with your classmates and professors yet there is no platform to start that conversation? Would you like to improve your public speaking skills and learn how to formulate, research, and defend an original idea, policy solution or simply a cause that you are passionate about? If you said yes to either of these questions, I urge you to sign the petition below so we can get a class dedicated to discussing your ideas and the issues that are important to you.

This class isn’t only important for Public Affairs/Political Science majors or those looking to have public service careers and influencing public policy. No matter what your career path is, business, academia, communications, marketing, etc…; being able to present, discuss and defend your own ideas and opinions is a crucial skill that will help you significantly as you embark on your career and beyond. This class will give you the tools you need to be a confident public speaker and the ability to support your ideas whether you’re by the company water cooler, a boardroom, giving a lecture, talking to your client or just with your family and friends.

Fill out the petition below and help ensure that we, the students of today and the leaders of tomorrow, have the tools, skills and experience we need to be successful out there in the working world.
