I am really interested in majoring in international relations and I was wondering how good the program is at colgate and how involved people are in it. I am also looking at schools like tufts and georgetown which have really good I.R. programs, but I could always try to go there for grad school. I say that because colgate just sounds really nice for undergraduate school due to the tight community and personal attention from professors that everyone says it has. However, if the I.R. program isn't very good...

Also someone mentioned on another thread that colgate students are kind of politically apathetic. Is this true?

I knew someone at Colgate who majored in IR, who now is a prof at Georgetown; so you definitely can get the grounding you need to be successful with an atmosphere you may enjoy more.

Some people are politically active, but it's certainly no Brown or Wesleyan.
