Thanks LaGrange College! They asked me what my favorite spot on our campus is for the photo. I told them right next to our student research! BTW, note my baseball tie, in support of our LaGrange College Baseball Team.

#FacultySpotlight Dr. John Tures is a professor of Political Science & coordinator of the Poly Sci program at LC. He has an active approach to teaching. "It's a good day of teaching when students are engaged, jumping in, playing a game, debating & bringing in their own examples."

In our last @LaGrangeCollege Political Science Moot Court Debate, I took on Christiana Walker. Our issue was whether or not a voter could wear a political button inside the voting location that said "Please I.D. Me."

Welcome to our Poetry Party by Proxy. What's that, you ask? It's this perceptive review of Matthew Freeman's "Dopamine and the Devil" written by Rita Rouvalis Chapman. Check out her insights in our 101st edition on Saturday. Then go buy Matt's book and enjoy his poems!

When a professor publishes dangerous findings, powerful interests strike back. Branded by John A. Tures raises the stakes quietly and relentlessly. 🕵️ buff.ly/sEsWLCK #PoliticalFiction #Thriller #Books #AmReading #BookTok #ReadingCommunity #AuthorsOfTwitter

Here's a great memory...back during the pandemic, when not many places had a graduation, our LaGrange College Political Science and History Graduates stepped up to give our Class of 2020 a good sendoff.

Not only did we have the full in person LaGrange College ceremony in 2021, but Max Wood, our keynote speaker, was a future LC graduation speaker! Thanks all who came and spoke!

Run America. What could go wrong? Raise taxes or cut them. Build a wall or a high-speed railway. Abolish daylight saving time. Fantasy President lets you type any policy at all, then shows you exactly who loves it, who hates it and which states just turned on you.

In our @LaGrangeCollege Political Science Moot Court, Genny Garza and Jahvon Wells debated each other over whether a politician could sue someone's private blog for defamation. @LaGrangeWSoccer vs @LaGrangeFTBL.
