Helvidius is a group that publishes the Journal of Politics and Society, an annual journal that publishes undergraduate research in social sciences, as well as works of public figures and scholars.

History

Founded in 1989 by Peter Tomassi, CC '91, the journal began as a magazine focusing on law and public policy that was distributed to schools in the Ivy League and in Congress.[1]

Name

The group is named after the Roman statesman and philosopher, Helvidius Priscus, who was banished and eventually executed for his vocal support of republican government.[2]
