Northwood University to Host Dr. Carson Holloway on Constitution, Hamilton v. Jefferson

September 11, 2014

On Wednesday, September 17, at 7 p.m., Northwood University’s Forum for Citizenship & Enterprise will host Dr. Carson Holloway on the topic “Completing the Founding or Betraying the Founding?  Alexander Hamilton Versus Thomas Jefferson.” The lecture will take place in the Griswold Lecture Hall on Northwood University’s Midland campus located at 4000 Whiting Drive. There is no admission charge or ticket necessary. Members of the community are encouraged to attend.

“Two-hundred and twenty-five years after its ratification, the U.S. Constitution continues to be a point of debate in American politics,” said Northwood University Professor Mariana Grigoras. “Dr. Carson’s expertise on the battles between Hamilton and Jefferson provides needed insight and understanding for leaders and voters alike. His lecture could not be timelier.”

Dr. Carson Holloway is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, where he has taught political philosophy, American constitutional law, and American government since 2002. He received his PhD from Northern Illinois University in 1998.

The author of “All Shook Up: Music Passion, and Politics,” “The Right Darwin? Evolution, Religion, and the Future of Democracy,” and “The Way of Life: John Paul II and the Challenge of Liberal Modernity,” he is currently completing a book on the Hamilton-Jefferson controversies within the Washington administration.

Carson is also the editor and co-editor of a number of works, including “Magnanimity and Statesmanship,” “Reason, Revelation, and the Civic Order” and “The Political Writings of Alexander Hamilton.” His articles have appeared in the “Review of Politics,” “Interpretation: A Journal of Political Philosophy,” and “Perspectives on Political Science.”
