Spring 2007 News Roosevelt-Sponsored Policy Course Arrives at Wheaton Professor Jerry Murphy of the Wheaton political science department taught an experimental course in policy creation during the Spring 2007 semester. The Roosevelt Institution chapter at Wheaton College worked with Murphy to develop the course's mission and syllabus, as well as recruited students who want to take advantage of this unique, exciting opportunity. The course explored how policies are formulated on four different levels, taking a separate look at city, state, national, and global policies. After learning the basics, students were able to focus on the policies in which they are most interested, from climate change to refugee rights.    Fall 2006 News Sun Chronicle: Student policy ideas   'warmly received' Fall Policy Forum "K-12 Education in the New Century" Center on Domestic Affairs Students, faculty, administrators attend "night of ideas" Two policy presentations and expert panel Wheaton Opens New Year with Sept. 25 Reception Information Agendas & Minutes   Meetings: Mondays at 8PM in the May Room in Mary Lyon Hall Group members: Gabe Amo Claire M Anderson Joshua Begley Aaron Bos-Lun Elizabeth D Cogburn Eric Eid-Reiner Sierra Flanigan Leo Gayne Zachary Ginsburg Annemarie Hanson Christina T Kostaras Albert Kramer Reid C Lavoie John M Saylor Ryan S Sermon Jerah Smith Shane Thurston Amanda M Wagner Jessica Webb   The Roosevelt Institution is a nonpartisan, nonprofit national think tank devoted to bringing students' policy ideas to the policy process.
