Professor teaches 1
By Catherine Bundy
Walking across campus on her way to
class, this tall, pleasant young woman with
long blond hair looks more like a student
than a professor.
At age 32, Jan Love, visiting professor in
USC's government and international studies
department teaching international politics
and comparative politics, looks closer to 25.
But when she speaks about international
affiars to university, church and civic groups
on subjects ranging from U.S. involvement
in Central America to the controversial
World Council of Churches, people listen.
And overwhelmingly, those who come armed
for conflict on tough issues leave a bit less
sure of their position and with a broader
perspective.
WHAT'S SO disarming about Love? For
one thing, she's been there. When she talks
about Nicaraguans' attitude toward their
new government, she's speaking from experience.
She spent a week touring the counfrv
in Dpremher.

Love did her doctoral work at Ohio State
University on local citizens' participation in
making foreign policy, particularly the antiapartheid
movement in the United States.

Work with the council has taken Love to
Kenya, Cyprus, Holland, the People's

returned recently from Geneva.
"It's important to me to be involved in an
organization that is an international actor,"
she said, "both to see how we can affect
where the world is going and to interpret to
Americans what's going on."
