Public Servant in Residence Program

Public Servant in Residence Program

In previous semester, our department has hosted Monmouth University’s Public Servant in Residence program. The goal of the program was to introduce students to leaders in public service and to assist students in examining important public issues. While this program is not currently operating today, check out the list of amazing public officials who have worked with our students in the past.
