About the author

J. Kevin Corder

I am a professor of political science at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo. My research has appeared in the American Political Science Review, The Journal of Politics, and other outlets in political science and public administration. Much of my work focuses on economic policy, including two books on the Federal Reserve System. In 2013, I received a Fulbright–Schuman European Affairs program grant to study the regulation of banks in Malta and the United Kingdom. I shared a National Science Foundation grant and the Carrie Chapman Catt prize with Christina Wolbrecht, University of Notre Dame. We co-authored Counting Women’s Ballots: Female Voters from Suffrage through the New Deal and A Century of Votes for Women: American Elections since Suffrage (both Cambridge University Press).

I teach undergraduate and graduate course in quantitative methods and I am working on open source texts for each class.
