11:00 AM All-Conference Session House Chambers for Closing Ceremony 6 State of Tennessee Sara Ali Governor Dear delegates, The next few days are ones for the books. You will spend hours debating mock legislation, conversing with new friends, and exploring the State Capitol of Tennessee in the wonderful city of Nashville. I am ecstatic to be one of the 40+ presiding officers who will lead you this weekend at Youth in Government. This program is one that has profoundly changed my life and has changed my outlook on many things. Over the past year, I have traveled across the nation and have spoken to fellow youth governors across a variety of states about the unique experiences students gain at conferences of this sort. After countless conversations, reading, and rumination, I have realized that during this unique time in history, we have more power than ever to foster change. Conferences like this do not only give us a taste of public service and civics; they reveal to us why our interaction with government and politics is so vital. Last year, I ran my gubernatorial campaign on the theme of “American progress.” I plan on stressing this principle at our conference this weekend. Progress keeps us moving forward, and it depends on the time we dedicate to it. Time will not wait for us to have our unproductive debates; time will not stop when the government shuts down because no one can come to a compromise. Time is something we cannot afford to waste. Progress seems like an impossible endeavor. I am not asserting that we can heal every ill and fix every nuanced problem. We can, however, through dedication to policy, take vital steps in that direction. Our generation is specially equipped to guide this conversation, to begin answering critical questions, for the simple reason that we are quite possibly the most unencumbered generation. We are not afraid to ask the piercing questions: we must. We do not shy away from confrontation in the face of our adversaries: we invite it. And finally, we are not content with not having a seat at the proverbial table: so we bring one. So this weekend, I challenge you to make some sort of progress. Whether it be delivering a unique speech on a topic you have never researched, or helping a new group feel prepared for a presentation, or simply having a conversation with someone new after a session. These are all ways to stimulate personal growth, community discourse, and means by which you can gain a better understanding of the world around you. Even if you do not leave this conference wanting to be a politician or lawyer, I hope you leave understanding the world around you more—or better yet, the important role you play in helping it move forward. Above all, I hope you leave this weekend knowing this: we are not the future, we are the present.

This epidemic is taking its greatest toll on children living in underserved communities. Many of these children are developing diseases that until now were only seen in adults, including type 2 diabetes and hypertension. Their weight is putting them at a disproportionate risk for heart disease, stroke, and cancers. Each time you see the toll this epidemic is taking, it probably feels overwhelming. It is frustrating to spend time educating families about the importance of physical activity only to hear local schools have slashed time outside the classroom.

  • POLS 4950: Knope, Swanson, and Public Service
    POLS 4950: Knope, Swanson, and Public Service Dr. Keith E. Lee Jr. July 2019 E-mail: [email protected] Web: keitheleejr.com Office Hours: by appointment (phone or WebEx) Class Hours: online Office: online Class Room: online Course Description1 This course uses the NBC sitcom Parks & Recreation to explore the concepts of traditional public administration, new public management, and what Denhart and Denhart refer to as the new pub- lic service. The traditional public admin model evolved dramatically in the 1980s and 1990s. The new model, New Public Management, approached public service as a business and used private sector strategies to improve efficiency. New Public Service provides a competing approach that calls for a reaffirmation of public values that puts public interest first. Leslie Knope embodies the new public service and works tirelessly to meet citizen needs. Ron Swanson, on the other hand, is an anti-government libertarian that challenges Knope’s attempts to grow government to serve citizens, arguing government is the problem. Chris Traeger and Ben Wyatt exemplify new public management principles when they show up in Pawnee to conduct an audit. Course Readings The book required for this course is available online via the library. Use this link to access the book: The New Public Service Bozeman’s Public Values and Public Interest is recommended to students interested in a more theo- retical challenge to New Public Management. Course Objectives By the end of the semester you will be able to: • Differentiate between New Public Service, New Public Management, and Old Public Ad- ministration • Examine various scenarios and apply concepts from the text 1I reserve the right to make changes to this syllabus at any time.
