Matthew Beckmann, UCI political science assistant professor, studies how presidents push their policy proposals in Congress and the consequences of partisan polarization in Washington - an especially timely topic given the current national debate over healthcare. So how's President Obama faring with his agenda? Beckmann will offer insights - and a glimpse of the White House action - at the University Club Forum when he speaks on "Grading President Obama's First Year." Does Beckmann grade on a curve? Find out!
