Huckabee served as the 44th Governor of Arkansas from 1996 to 2007. He ran for the Republican nomination for President in 2008, finishing second to eventual nominee U.S. Sen. John McCain.
As the former host of the “Huckabee” show on the Fox News Channel, Huckabee visited the College of Charleston in January 2012 for a South Carolina voters forum.
The Bully Pulpit Series, an effort of the Departments of Communication and Political Science, is a non-partisan event series that invites candidates running for political office to speak to the campus community. Through town hall events with political candidates, voter registration drives, student debates, hosted media events, unique campus service opportunities and relevant independent study experiences, the series engages young adults by meeting CofC students where they are – in the classroom, outside their dorm and through their social networks — to create curious, informed and engaged individuals.
