Four students share research with legislators at the Minnesota Capitol

Four Saint Mary’s students presented their research for Scholars at the Capitol March 11. During the event, these students had an opportunity to engage with several Minnesota lawmakers, who asked to review their research papers. A legislator also asked one of our students to potentially testify at a committee meeting related to a proposed bill. According to Dan Bucknam, Ph.D., “It was a great intersection between public policy and science.”
