WHAT: NBC News and MSNBC National Political Correspondent Steve Kornacki will look back at the 2016 vote and ahead to the 2018 mid-term elections at a free event for the public and campus community.

Kornacki’s talk, “The Trump Election One Year On: Did it Change Everything?” follows on his visit to campus a year ago immediately after Donald Trump won the presidency. Kornacki believes Trump shattered many of the long-standing “rules” of politics in 2016 and the program will explore whether those rules are now changed forever and what this means going forward. 

Kornacki frequently appears on “The Rachel Maddow Show,” “Today” and “The 11th Hour with Brian Williams” to offer his political analysis. A Groton, Mass., native, Kornacki took two dual-enrollment classes at UMass Lowell while in high school.

The event is presented by UMass Lowell’s Center for Public Opinion.
