Kristian Thymianos (Political Science, Brookings Mountain West, and The Lincy Institute) recently had their op-ed, "Nation Critically Needs More Women in Leadership" published in the Las Vegas Sun. In their piece, Thymianos discusses the underrepresentation of women in politics and the crucial role they play in "addressing inequalities not only in leadership but in the workplace and throughout society." Thymianos is pursuing a major in both political science and German, and is a student in the Brookings public policy minor program.
