An appointment committee went through the process of reviewing candidates for the position of Johan Skytte Chair in Eloquence and Government at Uppsala University. In all, they received application materials and supporting documents from eight candidates. Candidates were evaluated based on their political science and education expertise as demonstrated through their independent research contributions, and their oratory and administrative skill, and finally on their activities in the area of community outreach -- i.e., the education of the broader public outside academic circles.
