George Mason Â鶹¹ú²ú professor Jeffrey K. Grim took his HE 711 Policy Analysis in Higher Education class to the U.S. Capitol to learn about the education policymaking process.

Livija Kaktaite started her journey at George Mason Â鶹¹ú²ú in 2018 as an undergraduate global affairs major. This past May, she graduated with her master’s in international security from the Schar School of Policy and Government. During her time as a Patriot, she also played point guard and shooting guard on the women’s basketball team. Now as an alum, she continues to run up the hill—Capitol Hill.

With the U.S. Treasury deadline to raise the debt ceiling just days away, the United States inches closer to a first-ever debt default with possible ramifications for the global economy. Why have negotiations not led to a compromise? We asked Mason management professor Kevin Rockmann, co-author of the book Negotiation: From Conflict to Agreement.

A new course taught on Capitol Hill aims to instruct students on how Capitol Hill truly operates.
