News release
The Fort Hays State University chapter of the American Democracy Project has announced its spring 2022 schedule of events. This spring's events highlight the program's commitment to strengthening democracy. Dr. Larry Gould, ADP Faculty Advisor and Political Science Department Chair, said the upcoming Times Talks will "equip students with the knowledge, skills, and experiences to be informed and engaged, ready to tackle current and future issues to ensure a thriving and equitable democracy."
This spring, Times Talks will cover topics such as “Bipartisanship and Young Legislators” or “Colorado Springs and the Libertarian Party.”
“Times Talks are a powerful university-community tool for preparing the next generation of informed, engaged citizens," Gould said.
But, if a Times Talk isn’t your speed, stay involved with us by responding to our questions on the
Tiger Talkback board both in FHSU’s Memorial Union and on Twitter @TigerTalkback.
ADP would like to all of our partners, both on and off-campus, but especially the FHSU
Department of Political Science, Forsyth Library, and the New York Times, for their support of
this goal and of ADP as a whole. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact us
via phone at (785) 625-4425, or by email at [email protected].
