The Oval Office Is Ready For Madame President: Predictors And Support, Brittney E. Souza
Student Scholar Symposium Abstracts and Posters

Faculty Works: TRS (2010-2022)
The following essay emerges from the consultation of Evangelical Catholics and Catholic Evangelicals at the 2016 convention of the College Theology Society, which brings together Catholica and Protestant voices concerning a shared topic.
