With the Clinton Presidential Library and Clinton School of Public Service bringing expanded resources to Little Rock, UALR is enhancing its own presidential studies initiatives to emphasize the comparative study of the American presidency. (View description and requirements.)

This course explores the presidency of Bill Clinton from several perspectives, all grounded in the discipline of political science: the administration's policy making; presidential power and leadership; crises and turning points in the Clinton administration; campaigning and communications skills of the president; the administration's relations with the press, political parties and groups; and the legacy of the Clinton presidency.
