| Video Discription | This program is moderated by Senate historian Betty Koed and built off of her recent oral history interviews with former U.S. Sen. Nancy Kassebaum Baker. When Nancy Kassebaum took the oath of office as a U.S. Senator, she became just the fourth woman elected to a full term to the Senate, and when she joined the Senate in December of 1978, there were no other female senators. That alone is worth discussing, but her three terms in the Senate, from 1978 to 1997, transcended gender to tackle such issues as foreign policy, international arms control, the budget deficit, labor and farm issues, and aviation. A political moderate, Kassebaum became known for her independence and her ability to build successful coalitions among her colleagues. This event is part of the programming slate for the Association of Centers for the Study of Congress annual meeting. The meeting is three days of workshops, panel presentations and roundtable discussions that highlight innovative programming initiatives, pioneering research and continuing challenges relating to the preservation of the personal papers of United States senators and representatives. This year’s theme is “New Frontiers in Engagement.” -- The Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics is dedicated to promoting political and civic participation as well as civil discourse in a bipartisan, philosophically balanced manner. It is located on KU’s West Campus and houses the Dole Archive and Special Collections. Through its robust public programming, congressional archive and museum, the Dole Institute strives to celebrate public service and the legacies of U.S. Senators Bob Dole and Elizabeth Dole. More information on all programs, as well as ongoing additions to the schedule, can be found on the Dole Institute’s website, www.doleinstitute.org. |
