Many thanks to everyone who attended our Term 2 meeting. We had excellent contributions from Chi Zhang, Max Warrack, and Kerem Öge on simulations, role playing, and the use of AI in teaching and learning. Laura Gelhaus shared reflections on academic skills development and insights from PPE, while Robert Liu Preece presented an overview of student evaluations from Term 1. If you have not yet had a chance to attend a meeting, you are very welcome to join our final session in Term 3. The date will be circulated soon. We also wanted to share an update from our Term 1 meeting, where Alba Priewe and Charlie Price introduced a detailed set of seminar activities designed to support GTAs. The document is now complete thanks to the work of Tom Dunkinson and Sarah Khan and we hope it will serve as a useful resource for all teaching staff in PAIS.

In a new essay in Foreign Policy, PAIS's Tom Long and Carsten-Andreas Schulz point to historical parallels, and overlooked lessons, of the recent US intervention in Venezuela. Trump's plans to 'run' Venezuela through pliant leaders and threats resemble US policies of the early twentieth century. The architects of the so-called 'Donroe Doctrine', Long and Schulz argue, will soon confront frustrations that echo those that Washington faced a century ago.
