Program Description

Event Details

As Colorado and the nation diversify demographically, our legislative bodies also reached unprecedented racial/ethnic and gender diversity. Beyond reflecting the composition of their constituencies, diversified representation has profound effects on the representation of group interests, political parties, and the legislative process. Learn what political scientists have discovered about what the new faces of representation mean for American politics moving forward. Taught by Dr. Robert Preuhs of MSU.
