Great photo of Dr. Jessica Sargent (MPA '20, DA '24) and President Wagner.

Jessica is a Teaching Assistant Professor at the Baker School of Public Policy and Public Affairs at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

Just another example of how ISU POLS alumni make a difference locally, regionally, nationally, and globally.

Bengals showing up everywhere 🧡🖤

While visiting Knoxville, ISU President Robert Wagner stopped by the Howard H. Baker Jr. School of Public Policy and Public Affairs to connect with one of our incredible Alumni Board members.

From sharing stories about Idaho State University to geeking out over policy history in Senator Howard Baker’s office, it was a full-circle moment that reminds us just how far the Bengal network reaches.

Moments like this are why our Alumni Board matters—building connections, representing ISU across the country, and strengthening relationships everywhere they go.
