The College of Fine Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences Dean’s Speaker Series is thrilled to kick off the fall semester by welcoming back to campus NBC News and MSNBC National Political Correspondent, Steve Kornacki. Join us on Sept. 21 in the O’Leary Library Mezzanine for a lively and informative talk about what to expect in next year’s elections.

Named the “breakout star of MSNBC’s election coverage” in 2020 by the Associated Press, Kornacki is a master of the Big Board, with real-time analysis of voting patterns, exit polls and electoral data. Following his success during the election season, he took his talents to NBC Sports’ “Football Night in America” and “Sunday Night Football” to break down the evolving NFL playoff picture.

A native of Groton, Massachusetts, Kornacki is the author of “The Red and the Blue: The 1990s and the Birth of Political Tribalism” and host of the podcast “The Revolution,” which looks back at the 1994 Republican “revolution” set in motion by Newt Gingrich. He has also served as host of “Article II: Inside Impeachment,” an NBC News podcast on the impeachment inquiry.
