Throughout this election season, our faculty experts in the Political Science Department have shared their insight and expertise with the public via a slew of media interviews.
Collectively, Jonathan Wharton, Tess Marchant-Shapiro and Jennifer Hopper have provided Southern with a regular presence in the news. Media representatives have expressed that they value not only their knowledge of politics, but their ability to provide objective analyses of political events — a valuable skill in today’s polarized political world.
As an example, Channel 3 interviewed Jennifer both on Election Day, and then the next morning, about the presidential election race. She also was interviewed on WNPR’s “Where We Live” show.
Jonathan also was interviewed on Channel 3 before the election, and on Channel 30 after the election.
In the days leading up to the election, the three were interviewed by various media, as well.
As an example, Tess was interviewed by Channel 3, Channel 61 and WNPR.
