Midland senior Laaron Backry was not always an award winner in the political science field. During her freshman year, Backry was a biology major – a biology major who didn’t like math.
“Ever since I was 8, I dreamed of being a doctor, a surgeon specifically,” Backry said. “And that was what I was going to do and what I was going for, but I got here and I was miserable in science. And then math kicked my butt.”
During a period of indecision, Backry took a class in constitutional development that was suggested by a friend.
The Lariat sat down with Dr. Sergiy Kudelia, assistant professor of political science, on Tuesday to provide some insight on how the two presidential candidates will implement American foreign policy and act in international relations. Dr. Kudelia teaches two classes specializing in politics in Russia and social movements in non-democratic regimes. He is a member of the Program on New Approaches to Research and Security in Eurasia (PONARS), which is a global network of social scientists who conduct policy relevant research on the former Soviet Union.
