Rick Santorum served his home state of Pennsylvania in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1991 to 1995, and in the U.S. Senate from 1995 to 2007. He served eight years on the Senate Armed Services Committee, where he was a leader on US-Israeli relations. He authored both the "Syria Accountability Act" and the "Iran Freedom and Support Act," which he successfully fought to pass. He took on Washington's powerful special interests as a member of the "Gang of Seven" that exposed the Congressional Banking and Congressional Post Office scandals. He was also an author and floor manager of the Welfare Reform Act of 1996 that has empowered millions of Americans to leave the welfare rolls and enter the workforce. His record made him one of the most conservative senators in Pennsylvania's history. In 2012 Rick Santorum and his wife Karen co-founded Patriot Voices, a grassroots and online community that had an impact on a number of economic, social and national security issues.

Since 1987, the Presidential Caucus Series has provided students, faculty, and community members with an opportunity to question presidential candidates or their representative before the precinct caucuses.


The series is cosponsored by Student Government, the College Republicans, College Democrats, and the University Committee on Lectures (funded by Student Government), and administered by the Lectures Program.
