   Why Political Science? "...Political Science is an excellent road to law school because of what we study. Laws don’t fall fully made from the sky; they are crafted and debated by political actors, working within the confines of political cultures and institutions, they are implemented and enforced in political communities, and interpreted by judges subject to the same political forces as the rest of us."

-Christine Barbour, Clinical Assistant Professor
