September has been quite the busy month. Last weekend NKU hosted the 76th
Annual Meeting of the Ohio Association of Economists and Political
Scientists. I was fortunate enough to
present the research Dr. Misis and I have done so far on Kentucky law enforcement’s
use of social media. It went fairly well
I think. I also got to see research presentations
by some fellow NKU Department faculty and was impressed by what they’d
done. The next step for Dr. Misis and me
is to write a paper to submit for a journal which would be very exciting.
I have been chosen as the next President of PASS (the Public
Administration Student Society). We are
trying to expand the organization this year and get it a little more active
than it has been recently. The first
event we will be attending as a group is the Michael Sam talk being put on by
NKU’s Office of LGBTQ Programs and Services on Thursday October 6th
in the Student Union Ballroom. After the
talk we are hoping to get people to go to the Skyline Tavern to further discuss
his talk. Those who have class that
night are more than welcome to come after.
PASS is also hoping to do one more event this fall and do a lot more in
the spring. Check out our Facebook page
and stay up to date at: www.facebook.com/NKUPASS.
I will be returning to the Aronoff this season and have
already worked one event. The Cincinnati
Ballet performed “Director’s Cut” which was a series of vignettes choreographed
by the company. It was simply
breathtaking and I am definitely looking forward to more of their shows this
year. The first big Broadway Across
America show is the national tour of “The Sound of Music.” Fans of the movie will no doubt be coming in
droves to see it performed live. I’m
sure it will be a crowd favorite. I will be working it twice so I’ll probably
be hymning “How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?” for a while.
I have no idea what October has in store, but it puts me one
step closer to graduation and the real world.
Like I say in every post, thanks for continuing to read this blog. See ya next month!
