Bastiat Scholar"The Bastiat Program helped me to expand my cognitive ability by going past superficial memorization and engaging with policy, economics, and culture through the lens of their strategic and systematic implementations. The Political Science Program at UCCS hones and develops students’ abilities to think critically in a wide range of topics, ensuring they are not just thinkers but leaders. At UCCS I was able to debate across the country, attend exclusive political events and grow my network in ways that I before couldn’t imagine. The Political Science program’s team of professors instilled passion and knowledge into the classroom for a range of multi-lateral topics."
