The gov department is very strong here, but they are currently in the midst of a mini crisis, mostly because the word got around. Too many kids are becoming gov majors and taking gov classes than there are professors to teach them, though the college is actively hiring professors (3 of the 12 new professorships that the college is in the process of filling will go to the gov department) and trying to temporarily limit leave time for those currently hired to alleviate the crunch.
