LEWISBURG, Pa. — The political science department at Bucknell University will host a panel discussion on the 2010 elections Thursday, Oct. 21, at 7 p.m. in the Gallery Theatre of the Elaine Langone Center.
"The 2010 Elections in Context," which is free and open to the public, will be followed by a question-and-answer session.
The event will include presentations from four Bucknell faculty members — political science professors Chris Ellis, Scott Meinke and Atiya Stokes-Brown, and economics professor Chris Magee.
"The presentations are timely, given the upcoming election is only a few weeks away," said Meinke, associate professor of political science.
"Topics to be examined include: What is at stake in the November elections? What factors are driving our politics this year? What has changed -- and what hasn't? And what consequences will the elections have for the nation in 2011?"
