Political science at the University of Central Oklahoma, past and present

Abstract

During the put twenty-five years, the University of Central Oklahoma has experienced tremendous growth in the diversity and size of its student population. With these developments have come significant challenges, none greater than the demands brought on by UCO's transformation from a "Normal" school to a "University", with five colleges and a mission spanning the local--global continuum. The changes in the Political Science Department over this time have responded to these demographic and institutional dynamics.
