<div dir="auto">Hi everyone,</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">This is a great opportunity for advanced grad students working in political institutions or political economy, broadly construed, to present at a local conference. These events typically draw about 50-60 academics from Southern California representing American politics, comparative politics, and international relations. I made many of my early connections with senior faculty at this conference series and owe much of my professionalization to it - it’s a great opportunity!</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Please reach out to me if you have any questions or are unsure if a project you’re working on would be appropriate. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Best,<br clear="all"><br clear="all"><div dir="auto"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(0,61,165);font-weight:700"><font face="arial, sans-serif">Nicholas G.
