Welcome to The Parmeter Politics and Policy Record! My name is Nathan Parmeter, an aspiring public policy professional and graduate alumnus from the University of Maryland School of Public Policy's 2020 class. I decided to start this blog to display my talent for politics and public policy discussion, and practice relevant skills after completing my graduate studies. This blog focuses on political and public policy analysis, with the latter focusing heavily on social, economic, and budget/fiscal policy, my policy areas of interest. This blog utilizes basic discussion of topics, qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis and various forms of data visualization to present the results of statistical analysis, which range from basic statistics to regression.
My weekly blog posting schedule is as follows. As of March 4, 2021, I decided to start a two-month pilot program where I will eliminate the Thursday posting slot and decide whether to make this change permanent at the end of April.
- Sundays at 8pm PST
For now, The Parmeter Politics and Policy Record will be hosted here on Blogger. However, I plan to migrate it to Wordpress.org or another blogging-specific website once I get the hang of blogging and personally feel ready to go higher. Like with any content publication schedule changes, I will make sure to inform you of any changes to the host site.
Finally, since this is my first time ever blogging on the web, I would appreciate any advice on how to improve the features, functionality, and other aspects of this blog. I will make sure to incorporate such advice as soon as possible, and generally plan to add additional aspects and features to this blog as I publish articles, such as additional pages on the page header for sub-topics.
I hope you will all enjoy this blog, as I am very excited to start this endeavor! I will be back this Sunday, June 14th at 9pm with my first blog entry!
