A panel of six CSU, Chico Faculty discuss the topics of criminal justice (Dr. Haerle), international relations (Dr. Irish), health care policy (Dr. Potter), economics (Dr. Jennings), and Congressional dynamics (Dr. Dwyre) as they relate to President Donald Trump’s first 100 days in office. Moderator Sue Hilderbrand introduces the discussion by pointing out that while 100 days seems like an arbitrary number in which to begin to assess a new U.S. President, this milestone has a long-standing tradition that dates back to President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s first term in 1933. It has been a time to reflect on what has happened and to speculate on what can be expected in the remainder of a Presidency.
