Tomorrow is my last day of registration as an undergraduate, and I have completely changed my schedule since learning the US Constitutional History is taught by a Women’s Studies professor. First off, GW what are you thinking. You are the college where I have constitutional debates three times a week, and you throw Women’s Studies at me (Nathan, I apologize, but that class would drive me nuts, just not my thing).
Therefore, I am now taking the Modern American Presidency with an entertaining, but okay educating Professor. He is a little scattered, but I can manage. However, I don’t really know if I want to take it because I sort of already know all the general themes for each president Teddy through Slick Willie (who the class covers). Nothing else is offered really, and I want American. So eh.
However, while at GW, the History Department has offered US Hist 1890-1945, US Hist 1945 – Now, Revolutionary US History, History of the First Federal Congress (which basically covers to 1800, but not technically). They lista class covering 1815-1860, but in 3 1/2 years here. IT HAS NEVER BE OFFERED. Basically the 19th Century of US history gets the holy shaft at this school. I am not saying I am a civil war nut or whatnot, but comeon, give me something.
