An evening of pizza with Nixon
Kwantlen Political Science Society event is a success. Pizza, Nixon, and attendees equals good times for all. *note* Nixon wasn’t actually there.

The Kwantlen Political Science Society (KPSS) put on the Pizza and Nixon event on March 18th, showing the film Frost/Nixon, a dramatization of the Frost/Nixon interviews of 1977, and hosting a discussion period on “Nixon, Watergate and the Vietnam war,” said the President of the KPSS, Patrick Brower and of course, serving pizza.
Twenty people showed up for the event, which was the second to be hosted by the KPSS since starting in January 2009 to further “political dialogue in the Kwantlen community,” as Brower mentions. In May 2009, the KPSS held a debate on electoral reform and the STV system, then a referendum issue in the 2009 provincial election.
Also, the KPSS has put out its first issue of the Kwantlen Journal of Political Science this semester. The Kwantlen Journal of Political Science is the first undergraduate journal published at Kwantlen.
As for the future, the KPSS hopes to continue publishing the Journal of Political Science, and work on the next issue is beginning. It also hopes to hold a pub night after final exams in April.
