Breaking News: A Justice Dept. official is pushing prosecutors to investigate a group funded by George Soros, the billionaire Democratic donor whom President Trump has demanded be thrown in jail.
Justice Dept. Official Pushes Prosecutors to Investigate George Soros’s Foundation

EPSA have announced that they will hold a conference in July 2026.
😵💫 We understand that there might be some confusion about EPSS and EPSA.
👉🏽 So we thought we would clarify some things.

It’s now 10 years that I’ve left the city that I called home for 5 years, things still look bleak in Hungary, but from time to time there is a glimmer of hope. I hope this glimmer will turn into a fire storm until next spring. Kudos to all who participated in today’s Pride!!
Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.
However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

For all of those - in and outside of political science - who want to learn more about EPSS, or are genuinely confused, here are some answers to the most pressing questions:
Yesterday EPSS was founded, today we answer members’ questions.
A 🧵
1. Who formed EPSS?
EPSS was founded by a supermajority vote of the EPSA Council, made up of 3 EPSAL shareholders & 9 elected, appointed, or ex officio members.

Do profs respond to student evaluations?
On average? Nope.
Those who have a more positive view of their own teaching do.
But all of these responses are driven by the female teachers.
