Officially opened on Oct. 23, 2023, the Portman Center for Policy Solutions is located in the School of Public and International Affairs in UC’s College of Arts and Sciences. Its mission is to encourage individuals, regardless of their political views, to find common ground and solve problems in the political sphere. “I think it is critically important to find a way forward for this country, the campus community, and the city of Cincinnati,” Lewis said. “We can demonstrate that real, important work can get done by people with different ideological outlooks.” Through academic programming, research, and seminars with political figures at the local, state, and federal levels, the center provides an educational platform for comprehensive civic discussions. It also offers student fellowships, scholarships, and internship opportunities to cultivate the next generation of leaders, enhancing their education and fostering the ability to engage in bipartisan conversations and decision-making.
