Our annual Awards Night brings the Program together to honor the achievements of outstanding faculty, students, and alumni. The highlight of the evening was when Jennifer Disney, Department Chair and Professor of Political Science at Winthrop University, received our Distinguished Alum Award for her career achievements, including her groundbreaking book Women’s Activism and Feminist Agency in Mozambique and Nicaragua (Temple University Press, 2008). She delivered the evening’s keynote address, excerpts of which are included here, as featured in our department newsletter Homo Politicus.
