I agree with the previous posters’ comments. I am a political science major, and I love the department so far. Tulane tends to have a lot of kids interested in law school, so it is no surprise that our political science program is very strong.

There are a million course options available, which is phenomenal. Moreover, the faculty in that department is excellent. As someone noted, James Carville is teaching another class this next semester, and Newt Gingrich is a visiting professor as well. Not too shabby for a school a long way from DC.

The Murphy Institute of Political Economy, specifically, is top notch from my understanding. If you are interested in that field, Tulane is definitely a place to be.

I agree that your major may change in college (and probably will), but I think it is reasonable to think about schools in terms of their strengths. You won’t end up disappointed if you matriculate here, I promise.
