Senior Political Science Student Gives Conference Presentation

Justin Searls, graduating senior Political Science major, delivered his first conference paper this past weekend at the "All Politics is Local" conference at Walsh University in North Canton, Ohio.  The conference was established in 2004 as a way to expose undergraduate majors in Political Science and International Relations to professional academic experiences.

Mr. Searls was the only student from the University of Akron to present.  His paper, From Continental Empire to Commercial Empire:  The Evolution of American Foreign Policy was well received by his peers and faculty mentors. Mr. Searls plans on pursuing graduate studies in History after graduating this May.
