Nationally Recognized Speaker Dr. Carol Swain

Dr. Swain’s education and experiences make her a credible force for change in today’s social and political climate where conservatives are intimidated to champion an often unpopular message.  She is an accomplished speaker, author, television and radio personality, and former Vanderbilt and Princeton Professor.  Before joining Vanderbilt in 1999, Dr. Swain was a tenured associate professor of politics and public policy at Princeton University’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs.
