Julie Strauss, Ph.D.

“[Julie] is a good teacher because she mixes her Ph.D. education in political science with her natural ability to get students to think, to question, to discuss the information she presents.  Her personality makes students feel at home in her class.”
​—Leona H.

Is your organization interested in stimulating lectures on topical political events?  Have questions about the workings of the three branches of our government?  I am an established lecturer who speaks on a wide variety of subjects, all relating to American politics and current events.  It has been my privilege to have lectured around Chicago and suburbs for the past twenty years. I have delivered talks on contemporary political topics to a wide range of groups including Oakton’s Emeritus program, adult continuing education classes, Road Scholar (formerly Elderhostel Inc.) programs, the North Shore Senior Center, retirement communities and a whole host of community groups.  Please contact me and I will be delighted to plan a presentation designed to meet your group’s needs and budget.
