Description
Dr. Lindsey Cormack
Associate Professor of Political Science at Stevens Institute of Technology
Don’t miss an engaging and insightful discussion with Dr. Lindsey Cormack, author of How to Raise a Citizen (And Why It's Up to You to Do It). In a time when civic knowledge is alarmingly sparse and political conversations are often avoided, Cormack's book offers a vital tool for parents, educators, and anyone eager to foster civic engagement.
Beginning with a 30 minute talk by the author at 11am, a book signing will follow at 11:30a, this event is perfect for those interested in learning how to discuss political issues and the workings of the U.S. government with younger generations. Cormack will share insights from her book, discuss the current state of civic education in America, and offer strategies for starting important political discussions at home. Attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A session and get their copies of the book signed.
