In January, we organized a discussion featuring brothers who have conducted research across a variety of disciplines. This roundtable offered students multiple perspectives on what research looks like, how to get involved, and the inspiring discoveries and questions that emerge through the research process. 

Between classes, brothers were pied in support of POLIS philanthropy efforts. Pie-a Pi Lambda fosters community and camaraderie among brothers while supporting one of POLIS' missions: supporting and serving the surrounding community. 

POLIS hosted a conversation featuring immigration advocate Bethany Thorne, history professor Nara Milanich, immigration attorney Danney Salvatierra, and journalist Trisha Mukherjee. Together, they offered compelling insights into immigration, human rights, and advocacy in today's world. 

POLIS is home to a diverse collection of communities, including our Hispanic brotherhood. We celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month by learning about influential Hispanic figures and important political events The evening finished with salsa lessons and fabulous dancing from our members! 

Our chapter heard from individuals of varying backgrounds (former senior advisors, staffers, and others involved in campaigns or governmental offices) on their experiences as well as advice in exploring interests in undergraduate studies. This event was followed by a networking session where members could speak to speakers.
