Political Scientist Examines the Fierce Urgency of Obama on “MTSU on the Record”

(MURFREESBORO) — After the inaugural balls and other gala festivities are over, President Barack Obama will begin to tackle the major issues confronting the nation.

Dr. Robb McDaniel, associate professor of political science and winner of a 2008 Outstanding Faculty Award from the MTSU Foundation, will assess the political winds of change on “MTSU on the Record” with host Gina Logue at 7 a.m. this Sunday, Jan. 18, on WMOT-FM (89.5 and wmot.org).
