Can you tell me about the Nelson A. Rockefeller Center

Can I have some input about Dartmouth's Nelson A. Rockefeller Center? I want to study Public Policy/PoliSci/Int'lRelations. Is it comparable to programs at HYPS for the same major?

Dartmouth does not have a major in public policy, but it offers a public policy minor through the Rockefeller Center and a government (political science) major with concentrations in American, international, and comparative politics. I spend half my life at Rocky and would be happy to answer any questions. However, as I do not attend Harvard, Yale, Princeton, or Stanford, I am unable to comment on their programs.

PM me for details; I don't want to "out" myself here more than necessary.

I will say that Dartmouth is very strong in international relations. A Foreign Policy ranking from a few years ago (Dartmouth News - Foreign Policy ranking places Dartmouth among nation's top ten institutions for undergraduate studies in international relations - 03/13/07) named Dartmouth ninth in the nation for undergraduate IR, and, incidentally, the highest-ranked program with no graduate students.
