With the start of the calendar year, we have welcomed two new faculty members to the Clinton School.
Dr. Warigia Bowman is a new assistant professor of social change and Dr. Ellen Fitzpatrick is a new associate professor and director of international programs.
Bowman will teach the “Dynamics of Social Change” course in the Master of Public Service degree program, and Fitzpatrick will oversee the students’ International Public Service Projects and work to strengthen the school’s relationships with its international partner organizations.
Fitzpatrick previously served as associate professor of economics and director of the Latin American Studies program at the State University of New York, Plattsburgh where she initiated field service programs that placed students in service learning experiences in Latin America, Southeast Asia, Africa and Turkey.
Bowman previously served as an assistant professor of public policy at the University of Mississippi and a visiting assistant professor at the American University in Cairo, Egypt. She is currently working on a project studying the emerging political parties in Egypt in the wake of the January 25th, 2011 Egyptian Revolution.
