University of Houston Unit 3 Information and Accountability Blog Post A system of representative government works when citizens are informed and can hold their elected officials accountable for their actions. One of my goals in this class is encouraging you to pay closer attention to current events and the world around you. Each week I introduce you to different principles and concepts and the blog provides an opportunity for you to apply those concepts in a way that you can master the concepts and principles by applying them to events occurring now. You need to find a news article or op-ed about U.S. politics/government/policy (not an encyclopedia entry, website summary, press release, etc.) that deals with one of the subjects we discussed during Unit #3. In order to earn full credit, the article or op-ed must have been written in the last six months, you must draw a clear connection between the subject of the article/op-ed and a concept or principle from class, write at least 100 words using proper spelling and grammar, and include a link (the URL) to the article in your post.
