We want to earn your vote as the best day of journalism ever! With the upcoming political season -- from electing new members of the Topeka statehouse election to choosing a new president -- political coverage will be everywhere: on your website, on your broadcast, in your yearbook and on your front page. So, we want you to be ready. For that reason we will be providing expertise through sessions at our fall conferences. You will hear from the best political reporters around the state and nation. You will perhaps get to meet the candidates themselves. You will have the chance to interview political scientists from host universities. And so much more.
