State senator gives presentation to UHV political science classes

State Sen. Lois Kolkhorst gives a presentation Wednesday to students during a University of Houston-Victoria political science course. Kolkhorst spoke to two sessions of the “Texas State and Local Government” course and answered questions from students. Some of her topics were the difference between the Texas Legislature and U.S. Congress, her decision to run for the Texas Senate, the importance of getting an education and being a leader who serves.

The University of Houston-Victoria, located in the heart of the Coastal Bend region, offers courses leading to more than 65 bachelor’s and master’s degree programs and concentrations in the schools of Arts & Sciences, Business Administration, Education & Human Development, and Nursing.
