HPS, join us at this event on campus next Thursday night! As part of the university’s “Illuminate” speaker series, we are excited to host a panel discussion with the filmmaker of a recent documentary on women in the workforce, “Still Working 9to5.” The documentary uses lots of clips and stories from the original “9 to 5” film — starring Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda — to explore issues facing women in the workplace, from 1980 to the present. We have the filmmaker, local women leaders, and PLNU alumnae joining us in a conversation led by our own Dean Lindsey Lupo!
Appetizers from 6-6:30, then film & discussion at 6:45 in Crill.

HPS being HPS even while abroad...we learn, we laugh, we grieve, we think, we study, we sit in the discomfort, and we grow together. Here's a snapshot of our Czech Republic story so far!

✨HPS Senior Spotlight✨ Frida Espinosa Salas (Political Science Major/Criminal Justice Minor)

Favorite HPS Memory:
My favorite HPS memory is going on the Prague trip with Dr. Lupo in 2023. I really enjoyed the experience of learning in the classroom and then visiting the actual sites. I also loved Dr. Nantkes’s Politics of Immigration class, where we reimagined our immigration system for the final project. I remember worrying that my ideas were “unrealistic,” but Dr. Nantkes encouraged me to move forward with them anyway. This class taught me that creativity and optimism are essential for challenging systems of power, and I will be taking this with me wherever I go! :)

What I am looking forward to in the future:
I’m looking forward to combining my interests and getting involved with local organizations that align with the changes I want to see. I’m also excited to finally read the many books I haven’t had time to read. Additionally, I look forward to traveling to visit my friends from other countries. Overall, I am excited about the possibilities the future holds and being comfortable with the uncertainty of what comes next.
