He is probably the most enthusiastic professor I've had here at Bowdoin. I wrote a term paper for him a year or so ago for his political behavior class on the media's influence in politics and the critical eye to the media I developed writing that was priceless when watching the coverage of the post-election craziness. Professor Morgan is also great. He's got a great sense of humor and is extremely approachable. Please describe your interest in Government and other academic subjects.
Government is a great major.
There are so many good classes and the topics vary widely. Looking at how human societies come together to govern and the way rules and regulations are enforced and created makes you have to put on so many different hats. One class you can be a pondering philosopher, two hours later, a nit-picking lawyer, and then maybe later in the week examining another culture and how its government falls out of its social circumstances. I'm also a Computer Science major, which doesn't have the benefit of being as obviously broad topically as Government is, but that's only at first glance. The broadness of the CS major depends on the student's effort to make it so.
