Summer Policy Institute
Oklahoma Policy Institute will host the first Summer Policy Institute (SPI) from August 5 -7, 2013 at the University of Tulsa. The event will bring together 40-50 highly-qualified undergraduate and graduate students for an exciting and stimulating three-day learning experience. SPI will offer participants a unique opportunity to become better informed about vital Oklahoma policy issues, network with fellow students and leaders in the policy process, and prepare for their future studies and work in public policy-related fields.
The Institute will be hosted and led by the staff of OK Policy. It will also involve leading policy experts from government, academia and community organizations throughout Oklahoma. Keynote presentations will provide a chance to hear from top political practitioners and observers on such topics as the practice of political leadership, Oklahoma campaigns and elections, the intersections of state and federal policy, and the changing media landscape.
