Inside Politics: Kasey Pipes

Last spring, Inside Politics' Expert-in-Resident was journalist, speech writer, and presidential historian Kasey S. Pipes. Nine students participated in the program, which included a trip to Washington D.C. where students met with a variety of D.C. insiders, including David Mark, senior editor for Politico; political consultant Tucker Eskew; U.S. senate candidate Roger Williams; and political commentator Juan Williams.

This year, Kasey Pipes will be hosting another Inside Politics program for Fall 2010. The application deadline for this program has passed.
