Get to know the Political Science department better with our new faculty spotlight! This week is Dr Natan Teklemariam! Natan was born in Ethiopia but grew up in New York City. He is a self-described jungle master that over collects houseplants. He also enjoys traveling and having once co-owned a restaurant he loves to cook! Dr Teklemariam joined our department in 2023 after completing his PhD in Public Policy and Administration at Virginia Commonwealth University. We are lucky to call him part of the Clemson family!

India Adams, Sophie Finer, Ashley Limbacher, and Maren McClain presented the dataset they and the rest of my CI International Juvenile Justice team have compiled. It includes core characteristics of juvenile justice systems for all countries in the world including: age of criminal responsibility, status of juvenile death penalty, and sentencing guidelines. The dataset has been the foundation for over a dozen individual research projects conducted by the team.
