Political Memorandum 

For this, you will assume the role of the head of government and community relations for the university of your choice. After a national search, a new president has just been chosen to assume office in two months’ time. In this transition period, prepare a memorandum for the new president in which you identify and describe the emerging political issues on your campus, your suggestions as to how the president interact with government officials and the community, and the single most important item that you think deserves their attention.

In taking on this role, you should synthesize issues covered throughout the semester and demonstrate an understanding of the key components of selected issues via your memorandum.

Please keep in mind that presidents are busy, especially when they are new to a campus, and keep it concise, yet include all information and details they will need to know.
