Passing of Mayor Menino
The Department of Political Science offers its condolences to the families and friends of Mayor Thomas Menino. We are proud of the fact that he was Professor of the Practice in our department. We admired his enthusiasm and skills in sharing his experiences and insights with students both in classes and over pizza. His eagerness to create the National Survey of Mayoral Priorities led by two members of the department (Professors Einstein and Glick) demonstrated his strong wish to build bridges between the academy and government. We will miss his contributions.
