BACKGROUND NOTE
The first catalog of
the college, 1884-1885, listed political economy as a course of
instruction. Political economy was a common 19th century
composite subject, which included not only political science and
economics, but sociology as well. During the 1890's, departmental
grouping began to be formed and political science courses were included
in a succession of departments. In 1905, the Department of History and
Political Science was created. This was the administrative home for
these two disciplines until they were split in 1967.
Today, political
science courses are designed to achieve several objectives: 1) convey
the values and tradition of our democratic governmental institutions and
processes and encourage students to assert their talents in preserving
and nurturing those values and traditions through participation in the
body politic; 2) promote global awareness and understanding; 3) engender
critical thinking and a high proficiency in communication skills; 4)
serve the other social sciences as a cognate field; 5) provide the
student majoring in political science with foundation and advanced
courses in the many sub-disciplines of political science which, in turn,
will contribute to the student's intellectual growth and occupational
pursuits.
