On your TV, radio and computer to explain: 'Do Running Mates Matter?'
Associate Professor Christopher Devine has been addressing a consequential question: Do running mates matter? But he hasn’t been in a St. Joe’s classroom, nor has his audience been limited to students.
Devine has been a prominent voice in media interviews worldwide. He was a special guest on C-SPAN and NPR Morning Edition; spoke to reporters from the Washington Post, BBC, and Reuters, just steps away from the Republican National Convention; and fielded questions from journalists in Japan, Turkey, and other countries around the world.
His commitment to public scholarship adds depth to conversations that are often too superficial, helping the public engage more thoughtfully with the political process.
