IOP Pritzker Fellow Ken Buck on "How Undermining the Separation of Powers & Federalism Threatens Democracy" THIS SEMINAR IS OPEN TO CURRENT UCHICAGO STUDENTS ONLY Monday, October 14 12:30-1:45pm Congressional hearings were designed to provide oversight and accountability, but now, as the C-SPAN cameras roll, they generally devolve into partisan shouting matches. That and the erosion of local governance has separated voters from actual policymaking, which can lead to the expansion of an already out-of-control federal government. Pritzker Fellows seminars are off the record and open to current UChicago students only. Seating in the IOP Living Room is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have any questions about accessibility, please contact Sarah Palmisciano (spalmisciano@uchicago.edu).
