New York Times Journalist Peter Baker to Speak at Stockton University about Election 2024

originally published: 09/04/2024

(GALLOWAY, NJ) -- Award-winning author and New York Times journalist Peter Baker will share his insights into the 2024 presidential election during a talk September 12, 2024 at Stockton University. Baker will speak with Stockton professor Toby Rosenthal at 6:00pm in the Campus Center Theatre. The event is free and open to the public. Doors will open at 5:30pm.

Baker is the chief White House correspondent for the New York Times, which he joined in 2008 after two decades at The Washington Post. He has covered the past five presidents and their administrations and will discuss how the office has changed and what it means for the future of our democracy. He has covered eight Supreme Court nominations, six presidential inaugurations, three impeachments and multiple State of the Union addresses. He has written seven books, most recently The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017-2021 with his wife, fellow journalist Susan Glasser.

The conversation is sponsored by the William J. Hughes Center for Public Policy at Stockton, which aims to educate the public about important policy issues, provide a forum for public debate and discussion and encourage broader civic engagement through events, student programming and independent research.

This conversation is one of a series the center has hosted over the years that have included Rear Admiral Kevin Sweeney and U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Neil M. Gorsuch.

Stockton University is ranked among the top public universities in the nation. Our nearly 9,000 students can choose to live and learn on the 1,600-acre wooded main campus in the Pinelands National Reserve in South Jersey and at our coastal residential campus just steps from the beach and Boardwalk in Atlantic City.
