Professor Tommy Sowers participated in the first installment of Duke University’s Election Discussion series. Sowers, along with political science professor David Rohde, spoke via videoconference with political consultant Brent McGoldrick (T’97) in Washington. Sponsored by the Duke University Office of Public Affairs and Government Relations, along with Duke in Washington and the Forum for Scholars and Publics, the series features discussions between faculty, policy makers, and invited guests (including many alumni). Sowers was the 2010 Democratic nominee for Missouri’s 8th Congressional District and is currently teaching the “Enterprising Leadership” course.
