State Oversight Academy Symposium to be conducted online
The Levin Center for Oversight and Democracy will present the State Oversight Academy Symposium 2024 titled “Legislators and Academics in Partnership” online Friday, June 21, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. via Zoom.
Last year, the State Oversight Academy’s symposium connected scholars who study state legislatures with practitioners who serve as elected state lawmakers or as legislative staff. This year, it will take the same concept a step further: Equipped with this scholarly research, how can practitioners put these facts into practice to improve oversight in state legislatures?
This online event will begin with last year’s practitioner and scholars in dialogue format followed by a roundtable, in which scholars and practitioners will discuss how to put research into practice.
Scholars and graduate students are encouraged submit working papers on state legislative oversight and related topics. SOA will select three or four papers, each of which will be read by a practitioner who will give in-depth feedback based on their professional experience.
The morning of the symposium, scholars whose papers were selected will have 20 minutes to present their paper, followed by 15 minutes of feedback from the practitioner, and 10 minutes of questions and feedback from the audience.
Practitioners interested in reviewing research papers are encouraged to email Kyle Bule at kyle.bule@wayne.edu.
The symposium will also recognize the inaugural SOA Oversight Leaders.
