Reed student Duke Harjo selected for Bunche Summer Institute
Duke R. Harjo is one of 20 students selected by the American
Political Science Association to attend the 2006 Ralph Bunche
Summer Institute in Durham, N.C.
PORTLAND, OR (May 4, 2006) – Reed College
student Duke R. Harjo is one of 20 students selected by the
American Political Science Association to attend the 2006 Ralph
Bunche Summer Institute in Durham, N.C. Named in honor of the 1950
Nobel Peace Prize winner, the institute is an academically
intensive five-week program for African American, Latino, and
Native American students interested in pursuing a Ph.D. in
political science.
Harjo, a junior who grew up in New York City and Washington, D.
C., is thrilled. "I cannot tell you just how excited I am
to be a part of the Bunche bunch," he said. "This
is an opportunity to work with other students of color committed to
increasing the visibility of underrepresented populations in
academia." Paul Gronke, associate professor and chair of
political science at Reed, commended Harjo's academic and
leadership qualities. "I've been very impressed
with Duke's ability to excel in Reed's demanding
intellectual environment. Duke has shown not only the ability to
excel in the classroom, but has readily taken on the role of mentor
to other students. He has great potential as a future faculty
member."
The Ralph Bunche Summer Institute, which will be hosted by Duke
University this year, gathers junior and senior political science
majors from across the country. They take two three-credit
graduate-level courses– one in research methods
and quantitative analysis, the other in race relations and American
politics. "I'm looking forward to getting a taste
of grad school while still working on my B.A.," Harjo
said.
